The End of the Road.....

VERY exciting news!

I've been commissioned by the lovely folks at End of the Road festival to make an group of lanterns to be installed at the festival site, Larmer Tree Gardens in Dorset. The lanterns are an evolution of Thermochromes ( colour changing candle holders) using the same heat-sensitive coating and candles as a heat source. A group of lanterns will be suspended from a huge tree throughout the festival, and when the candles are lit they will change colour from hot pink to delicate translucent white. All I have to do now is make them...

Pottery shards excavated from my back garden last week. The sixties printed pattern was about two feet down, the blue and white a few feet deeper. Digging a hole for a post became an impromptu archaeological dig.
