The live art piece "Singing Ghost" explores the context of song lyrics. In particular how the meaning of songs shift sharply when sung by a ghost. The piece is a medley of covers, interwoven with my own 'song poems' and ghostly sounds, creating a multi layered performance examining notions of love, loss and contemporary perceptions surrounding the meaning of death. For "Kwaidan" on March 27th The Singing Ghost will have a Japanese twist. Here is Singing Ghost at Westminster Library in 2012
On
Wednesday April 2nd I will be singing with Union Chapel Singers again,
delivering an evening of carousing, merry making and drinking. Come and
join us for a sing along in Union Chapel's gorgeous bar! Entry is free,
but donations are welcome, with all profits going to the charity
Wateraid.

And
finally, here are some pics from The Mad March Chutney Tea Party, that
took place at Hundred Years Gallery at the beginning of this month.
Thank you to photographer Jemima Broadbridge for those.
It was a wonderful live art performance in celebration of March madness, with artists Sarah Sparkes, Sarah Doyle, Philip Goodman, Calum F Kerr, Frog Morris, Ben Foong, Caroline Gregory and Rebecca Feiner.
Alice Renouf and I created a mysterious singing concoction, inspired by the 1965 Joseph Beuys performance "How to Explain Pictures to a Dead Hare", and celebrating spring. I was the female personification of Joseph Beuys, and Alice was the spirit of the hare. I made a Vox Choc cake. An inedible delicacy cast in plaster from cake, biscuit and chocolate packaging, and decorated with paint, buttons, shells, beads and gold leaf. It was cut up and distributed to members of the audience who were also invited to paint harey eggs with Sarah S., open Magpies with Sarah D., be analyzed by scientist Frog and insulted by Philip's course hare and of course to join in the singing. It was collaborative, creative chaos, mayhem and March madness. A Chutney Preserves event, in the true spirit of Chutney, curated by Sarah Sparkes.
