Chris invited me to London yesterday to meet a women's group, inspired by networking through the Mary Foundation. Met amazing women working in diverse settings around the world. Caroline is on the quest for anyone called Mary, so I signed up to her Facebook project, as one who has Mary as a second name. We talked at length about the Travelling of Museum of Possibilities, she asked me about DOCUMENTATION & EVALUATION. Asked me too, whether the process could be repeated elsewhere. Yes, I cried, then she said "what about with two communities who don't get on"...Mmm, I thought, where exactly? "India & Pakistan", she said.

Took the collection of Black & White images to Mish Mash meeting. Invited a response from the writers in the collective. Oooh they said "They are as though of another time". "Lots of Masks & Mirrors", said another. This has started me thinking about how to reflect the work back to the community, to tell a story, to unravel a fairytale. Sarah asked if she could have a copy of Girl with the Mirror.

Dear Jill

Thanks so much for sending me the picture, much appreciated. I thought afterwards it was a bit of a cheek me asking you for it... I loved the whole collection and I am totally in awe of your photographic skills. The pictures were magical, beautiful, quirky, unsettling and all so well framed and set up, I am agog they were uncropped, unedited originals. You are brilliant.

I think this picture would make such a brilliant novel cover so I am hoping it will inspire a story...

I enjoyed the meeting too. It was like bathing in a golden pool of creative energy, very healing and inspiring.

Lots of love,

Have spent the last week reflecting, inviting the possibility of slowing down, feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, full of doubt, sorting out materials, costings, returning loaned items with gifts of thanks, emptying the brain, allowing impressions to unfold, stories to layer, after such an intense, relatively short period of project time. And, ultimately, asking the question what was that journey all about and wouldn't it be better if I got a job in a shop or something?
