Save Union Terrace Garden Petition (click here)
Please support the saving of Union Terrace Gardens.
1- If you want to know why Sir Ian Wood’s plan is not the right one for the space or our city. Just ask I’d happily discuss it with you and… easy to talk to while I am still certain of my conviction.
2- If you want to know why in this case it is imperitive that you do show your support then please just discuss it with me, or one of the other supporters. Because this time it really does matter.
If you believe in your voice, or in democracy and the freedom to speech and your right to have influence over your city, then you need to stand up for it.
This isn’t a case of business ‘v’ arts. Or oil ‘v’ culture, this is a case of power and influence ‘v’ the citizen.
Even if your for Sir Ian Wood’s plan we could show you where the project has been undermining justice.
Our actions now will define whether our leaders respect, listen and act on our behalf or not in the future. This is important.
Video’d by Jon Reid. His first of this sort I think. I like the whole accept for the end bit where I feel like a tool. But hey it was an intense two weeks of drawing in that place and Jon put in a stellar effort. I’m really thankful.
The title is actually ‘If my garden is bigger, you live further away.’
As far as social/political theory and art goes I really thinking outloud. I’d like to work toward utopia, heaven on earth. What that would look like is still beyond my grasp so art tends to involve in the coversations I have internally. Pecocks are advertising a Aberdeen Uni conference on political theory and art etc. It’s on in October I’ll be heading there with Gilla Brooker another local artist. The links following.
‘Cow Aid Drop’ is my thought for a T-Shirt design for a local place. Really looking forward to seeing what other folk put forward.
