Sacrificial Materials: Finding my feet in Stranraer

http://sacrificialmaterials.blogspot.com/2010/04/finding-my-feet-in-stranraer.html

Art and Public Space. Research Topics and Speculation about Art and Public Space by Scottish Citizen and artist Matt Baker. Thursday, 22 April 2010. Finding my feet in Stranraer. John Pickin at Stranraer museum gave me this wonderful visualisation of a previous 'regeneration' attempt around the Castle in Stranraer from 1967. This is a similar view today of the space that I am commissioned to work with:. To the west of the square is an empty branch of WHSmiths:. Graffiti from the top of the castle. Http:/...

Treshnish Farm: A day to remember

http://haunnblackhouse.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-day-to-remember.html

Treshnish: all part of the story. Friday, 17 July 2015. A day to remember. I managed to fit in 4 wild flower wanders in one day, and each one was magical in a different way. Walk number one was arranged by the Ranger Service. With Rachel their seasonal ranger taking the lead. She brought books and ID charts, she talked about the Big Butterfly Count which Butterfly Conservation organise and which starts any day now, it only takes 15 minutes - why not have a go? The Slender St John's wort is flowering.

Treshnish Farm: July 2015

http://haunnblackhouse.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

Treshnish: all part of the story. Tuesday, 21 July 2015. Walking through the field the cows were in about 2 weeks ago. This lush ring of flora hides a cow pat. Talk about natural fertiliser! A pale lilac Self heal. A delight to see a Six spot burnet moth on a Fragrant orchid. Looking back to the boathouse. Everywhere we looked there were orchids. I think these are Common spotted. Whatever they are, they are common here. It is bliss being out there at sunset. Eyebright picking up the light. It is hard wor...

Treshnish Farm: August 2014

http://haunnblackhouse.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html

Treshnish: all part of the story. Sunday, 31 August 2014. Away with the Birds. Here we are, Away with the Birds. On the Canna ferry from Mallaig. A Bonxie (great Skua) circling overhead. Coming to the pier. The atmosphere on the ferry is wonderful. Everyone seems to be excited. We are welcomed by Stewards who are helpful and warmly instructive. We have from 10am until about 4pm to explore before we gather in the marquee next to Canna House, for tea, drams and cakes. We head off to explore. We look back a...

Treshnish Farm: November 2014

http://haunnblackhouse.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Treshnish: all part of the story. Sunday, 23 November 2014. Choosing the last two. In order to ensure that every ewe has more than a good chance of being 'served' by a tup (ram), it is important to make sure you have the right number of tups to ewe. Every January we have one or two to 'cast', and they are either sold to neighbours or go to market - and every October we need to buy a few more. This year we seem to have bought 7! The last 2 we bought from the MacLeans at Knock Farm. I missed the northern l...
