From 2000 to 2003 I took part in a group residency on the Isle of Colonsay, with the painters Lynda Sale and Janey Haggar, the sculptors Paco Garcia Fernandez and Leslie-May Millar and also with the poet Harry Eyres. We had an exhibition on the Island in 2001 and the project culminated in an Exhibition and poetry reading in Shoreditch, London.
“Colonsay: a nine-mile-long sliver or lozenge; an island somewhat set apart, officially ‘inner’ but also outer; sheltered by Mull, loomed over by the sky-reaching Paps of Jura; a world away.”
