Giant Origami Peacocks & Secret Tent at Larmer Tree Festival
Exciting collaboration with hunter-gatherers at Larmer Tree Festival
I’ll be exhibiting Giant Origami Peacocks in the beautiful Larmer Tree Gardens and running origami workshops at the Secret Tent on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th July.
(via hunter-gatherers)
We are producing the Secret Tent
You will never find The Secret Tent unless you are invited. A limited number of maps leading to the tent’s location will be secretly released during the festival. If you are approached by a stranger or find yourself in an unusual conversation, perhaps you have been invited. Check your bags and pockets, you might now have a map. If you choose to follow the map mysterious treats await you. Perhaps you will enter a Japanese tea tent or a private gig or stumble upon an exclusive wine tasting, perhaps if you are lucky, you may find yourself facing your future.

Trill Summer Week is a Four-Day family event held on a beautiful Devon farm, near Axminster.
There will be a whole host of inspiring activities run by some of the UK’s most exciting and groundbreaking artists, cooks, musicians and adventurists. It’s all about being creative, having fun and connecting with nature - you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the wildlife around the farm as well as exploring and experimenting with art, craft and music…
You could come for the day, join us for the evening, or if you would like to stay longer we have a beautiful meadow campsite. If you fancy a change we have classic tipis, a gypsy wagon and a luxurious yurt. You can buy tickets on arrival but to ensure your place it’s best to book in advance.
The Trill Trust is hosting this Summer Week at Trill Farm. It is an education charity (charity no. 4172005) which aims to inspire healthy and responsible living, and an understanding of how deeply interconnected these ideals are with the natural world.

The Process - Lotus Flower
Brighton Festival 2011 commission: “2000 Lotus Flowers”
Aung San Suu Kyi’s release in 2010 was a true moment of celebration, but there are still over 2,100 political prisoners in Burma. To raise awareness of this, I was commissioned by the Brighton Dome and Festival to lead the project to make over 2,000 flowers to represent each detainee. The lotus flower represents freedom and purity and is a global emblem of new beginnings and positive change. At the end of the Festival, on Sunday 29th May 2011, these flowers will be taken to the Freedom Picnic in Queens Park for a final installation piece. 10 giant lotus flowers can be seen floating on the pond within the park.

6pm Saturday 30th October 2010 to 7am Sunday 31st October 2010
Marwood Coffee Shop Backyard 52 Ship Street Brighton BN1 1AF
In a dark, supernal other-world, clad in a sleek glowing armour, mysterious pterosaurs are found…
Dinosaur Dreams is a giant origami installation inspired by renowned children’s authors, Janet and Allan Ahlberg’s Funnybones series. The skeletons of two humans and one canine seek out adventures in the middle of the night, encountering ghosts and playing games.
Dozens of giant origami pterosaurs herd together in their secret enclosure behind Marwood Coffee Shop. Although they have been extinct for millions of years, dinosaurs are always fascinating, sometimes adorable, mostly scary. They are alive only in our imagination and dreams.
Come along to the secret backyard of Marwood on White Night. Discover that things look very different in the dark and experience the magical moment when the past meets the present.
