>>MOMO Outskirts paper . ’on the daydream meadow’ // a conversation about the work<<
‘Daydream Meadow’ is a living ecological artwork created during an intimate sensory encounter with a magnificent Highveld landscape in South Africa. In an intuitive flow of sensory interaction with clay, water, Earth pigments and wildflower seeds, all gathered in the landscape, I formed a series of 22 ephemeral wildflower seed vessels.
During a ceremonial performance, I returned the clay vessels to where they belong; the awe-inspiring landscape at The Cradle Of Humankind, South Africa. There they will be claimed by the elements and slowly melt back into Earth to grow into a wildflower meadow.
A circular act.
