These works were created while on residency at the MUSEUM OF LOSS AND RENEWAL  in October 2019. I was selected for a Prendendo Tempo residency at The Museum (created and run by artists Tracy Mackenna and Edwin Janssen in Collemacchia, Italy) to develop my project Casser Maison and for three weeks I worked outdoors in the mountains of Molise.

The paintings and drawings in this section were all created on location in the outdoor studio I set up behind the village of Collemacchia. One particular object summed up the process of Casser Maison for me. It was a clay memory box or ‘aedicula’, which I created from collected materials and local clay. A memento of time spent in Collemacchia, when I returned to Scotland. I left it behind in my outdoor studio. Here it slowly dissolved in the autumn rain. Tracy documented its disintegration sending me photos until it finally disappeared.
