carnaval 2009



algumas vistas, acabei por tirar poucas fotografias, e ainda não tirei as filmagens de dentro das cassettes.


Fizemos aqui acampamento de dia e está-se muito bem.
Deve ser bom para acampar no verão, tem tanquinho com água e sombra a partir da tarde.
Tb se pode por as tendas no lado sul para aquecerem para a noite?
Há muitos pequenos terraços habitáveis.

carnaval 2009





Encontrámos as giestas todas cortadas.
Ali está o que resta do pombal. tem cerca de 5/6 metros no diâmetro interior.
Existe um carvalho que está lá dentro que gostaria de tentar transplantar cá para fora.
Parece que os senhores da Cãmara irão lá queimar o que cortaram. Tenho pena de não ter sido avisada, gostairia de ter acompanhado o processo e deixar algumas giestas.

outono 2008


Be There #1


Tenho umas colinas na serra
Vou começar a habitá-las.
Construir uma cabana e depois um barracão.
talvez um pau de cada vez.
Já tenho uma janela. No proximo sábado levo para lá a janela e uma cadeira.
Com esses objectos ja poderei ver hipoteses de sítios para construir.

The plan is to start living there as we can.
We will build a shack and then a bigger barn-like construction.
One board at a time, I guess.
I found a window the other day.

Next saturday I shall go there with a chair and a window.
This construction will be an extention of the work I have been developing the past two years.

I will get out of carboard boxes into a larger scale of wooden shack where I can get in. Not just in the visualization through captured image, but actually being there, inside full size sketches of a possible proper home.
In the future I see a confortable house, a big workshop and a rebuilt circular stone construction that may have all types of uses, one of wich will certainly be that of a place of meeting and eating together.

Fences will be put up.
Wild berries bushes must be tamed and paths cleared.
The circular ruins have to be studied, drawn, photographed. Sat on. Cleared from wild vegetation . Invite people to participate in all stages of a transformation journey, to create conditions for humans to be there. A place where we can contemplate and help create at the same time.It is as place for craftspeople. By craftspeople.
Fairies are welcome ( fairies I call those who build wellbeing; musicians, healers, performers, poets, visual artists, ... ) . I'm a bit of a fairy sometimes with the filming and photographing.
My son is a musician and a gardener. He's also an untrained healer or so I see him.
This expedition is already on the move.
Any time will be good to join in.
The general plan is as mentioned before.
Go there, build house, plant food, build more house, be there more.
More detailed plans will be made as we go along depending in what comes our way.

please feel free to ask question or leave comments.
