Boooooooom!

A busy Easter weekend saw teams out at the Medway English Festival, The Red Dragon Centre and Clacton Pier. In between the performance we even found time to start distressing Aurelious's tent. The high light of our weekend however was being given a tour of the oldest building in Clacton, the derelict cast iron shell of the old theatre on the pier. Such an evocative space and the sought of place I imagine Aurelious and Epico living out their winter months!

Now we return to the workshop for Project Dinosaur :)

New project

These scales in our local metal shop have been weighing out metal daily since they were forged in Birmingham over a hundred years ago. They have the assured elegance of a well made object, whose perfect balance of form and function has stood the test of time. Qualities so unique in our disposable world that the objects value now exceeds its application and people keep offering to buy it. But its not for sale, because it has a hidden sentimental value beyond either the aesthetic or the practical, to the hands that have used it all their working lives.

These are qualities we strive to emulate in our characters, where form, function and connection between the human and the material collide. Thoughts to bear in mind as we break ground on our new project.

Details to follow :)
