Over a month since my last entry. I’ve been busy performing “two steps forward, one step back” at The Harris Flights – a temporary installation of stairs leading to the first floor veranda (a forgotten space) of The Harris Musuem and Art Gallery and Library.
Various feedback from various people, some critically engaged some lay but it’s all good; some of the people, some of the time, not that I’m trying to please just another useful saying to summarise the gist (to my mill).
To summarise then, comments ranged from the abusive “You’re a fucking clown” to the surprising “It’s profound”.
It’s important to be patient and make no assumptions. As with other interventions in public space some people made the effort to come back and carry on the conversation.
A surprising number of people joined in, not all of them young.
Many people wanted to know why.
