I was amazed when the delivery of bamboo arrived at my studio space in Gongju, the poles, about 50 of them, were all 12 ft long and perfectly straight.<br /> <br />I later visited a bamboo forest in Japan to help another artist cut lengths for her artwork, an amazing experience as the bamboo went on for ever and I could walk easily through the forest of bamboo and never see the sky or too far ahead.virginia joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17107148902388476511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171973631154853365.post-38419383651419314992011-03-30T20:04:00.000-07:002011-03-30T20:06:46.476-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTt9ECmXxS4OfXXvlt7_lIeB_FNX0Pgx5PxHzHsgjGTW6wY_5030tgb1r0niLRqr8AN4Q_LXxA2SfyTSRT2vCJSEAbeJng2bg3GS5vFq4S-7VzKFhVk5y3C-enaqmXwZBku_kqbjxeRKTq/s1600/bamboo_detail_sm.jpg"><img style="display:block;

The perfect place to sit and reflect on the coming months. At this stage of my residency I am focusing on absorbing the physical aspects of the gardens, just being in the gardens, observing nature and talking to people that work or visit the botanical gardens.virginia joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17107148902388476511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171973631154853365.post-865795009505697252011-03-14T20:56:00.000-07:002011-03-14T20:57:50.317-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC0E9DblRw10cG6aIKCQ8_OgLFN-wFEQRQ_23OMHMPzEKY11e20_yf75NEfkXJNR8QqfH0qjCdUwLtLG6tHiUKyYoJM4JCssVTwxDNAAc3gCx3xN7HUJmE1O2zj3mTOJOJefYH5ZB3ilWb/s1600/gate_sign.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC0E9DblRw10cG6aIKCQ8_OgLFN-wFEQRQ_23OMHMPzEKY11e20_yf75NEfkXJNR8QqfH0qjCdUwLtLG6tHiUKyYoJM4JCssVTwxDNAAc3gCx3xN7HUJmE1O2zj3mTOJOJefYH5ZB3ilWb/s320/gate_sign.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584150914283571314" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMYlAvzmrGCgs4VW7w5LcVczGK0-X0uHt8S2IQ5PTF5eQAqqJWLKJJtESNxVerrXqW2hqmSLH4Uiz7VIObpBBJMb0V6h8-G_XQv8G8EO_h0YyQ4Dma9HS5n2jdb50ccVUGI_nZJwkowoxg/s1600/entrance+_2_garden.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMYlAvzmrGCgs4VW7w5LcVczGK0-X0uHt8S2IQ5PTF5eQAqqJWLKJJtESNxVerrXqW2hqmSLH4Uiz7VIObpBBJMb0V6h8-G_XQv8G8EO_h0YyQ4Dma9HS5n2jdb50ccVUGI_nZJwkowoxg/s320/entrance+_2_garden.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584150783541410434" /></a>virginia joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17107148902388476511noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171973631154853365.post-60052177045107345282011-03-07T21:11:00.000-08:002011-03-07T21:23:32.632-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPolOHPHSDphLGWlA7_4S56RhXubgHxVt91V1y_VLV8OIKHj7iOuJTAJtG2gKIYT2Rw1Artnh711G6q_o2BI7sej8ldsq-YaIlJjF2zqsI4urPGhyphenhyphenFMrCCJs6TVcQB1NjjmSDx8-unwAJ3/s1600/IMG_4370.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPolOHPHSDphLGWlA7_4S56RhXubgHxVt91V1y_VLV8OIKHj7iOuJTAJtG2gKIYT2Rw1Artnh711G6q_o2BI7sej8ldsq-YaIlJjF2zqsI4urPGhyphenhyphenFMrCCJs6TVcQB1NjjmSDx8-unwAJ3/s320/IMG_4370.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581574362681027362" /></a><br />ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE 2011<br /> Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens<br /><br />My studio this year will be the beautiful Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens in Brisbane. I will be artist-in-residence at the gardens this year and will be creating artworks in outdoor sites within the 52 hectares that is recognised as Queensland's premier subtropical gardens.<br /><br />The gardens feature more than 20,000 plants, representing about 5,000 species from around the word. The collections are divided into arid, tropical and temperate zones, uniquely possible in Brisbane's subtropical climate. Both native and exotic plants are represented, however the Australian Plant Communities occupies half of the total area of the gardens.<br /><br />Every year an artist is invited to use the gardens as inspiration for a creative project. This is a wonderful opportunity for an artist to access the incredible living collections, the gardens botanical and horticultural library, the educational program, the gardens research programs and the on-site Queensland State Herbarium.virginia joneshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17107148902388476511noreply@blogger.com2
