Location, location, location.
That's what Christine Turner's art gallery - Dirty Linen Art Space is to me.
The concept for this project came from a lot of places, but settled after walking in the front door as the place to develop and 'germinate' further.
The doors are open Sundays from 10am to 2pm to artists and lovers of art to workshop, talk, chew the fat and share their creative journeys. Poets, painters, crafters, photographers and bloggers have all trudged through the doors in the last few weeks. There's tea, coffee and cake and smiling faces. Go, look, experience.
If you can't make it to the gallery, make it to Christine's blog.

I sort of like the idea - if I'm getting it right - that the play will be generated as much by the place and circumstance as by the mind conceptualising it. Again, if I'm getting it right, the process will be much more organic than seems to be the usual case. This leads me to wonder if it will always be the same play. Is there space for the walk in to add their two bits? Or is that going too far past the shape of what a play is.
