Hi there Judith,
 
Thanks so much for the review, it's always good to get some considered feedback.  I'm so glad you liked my Spooks - I have had very little response to them - for some reason they seem to have freaked people out too much!

The Geraldton artists will be really thrilled too - it's a shame you missed Malcolm Mitchell's performance at the exhibition opening, it was truly breathtaking.  He danced in and around everyone's works (including his own installation in the corner).  He actually left the footprints in Pieternella's work (that element of the installation was a sort of collaboration between the two of them) - as part of the performance he took off from a completely stationary position, leapt through the air into her installation and jumped straight out the other side again, quite scary as the box thorn she used is really nasty, dangerous stuff (huge thorns). Quite fantastic, and I think the footprints really make her installation - they'll be chuffed you singled them out.

Marianne's stuff is so beautiful too...
 
Anyway, I'll be sure to forward your review to them all, thanks again so much.

Have a great Christmas Judith
