To The Field: February 2011
http://tothefield.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 February 2011. The field lies before me. What is a field? John Stewart Collis, The Worm Forgives the Plough. This blog aims to put into words and images the life of the land, these plots of land, and our relationship to the land. Through it I wish to find answers to the question John Collis was asking. It seems a simple question, we all know what a field is, don't we? But I'm not sure we do, really. I'm not sure I do, but I want to find out. Labels: to the field. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

To The Field: Monoliths of the field
http://tothefield.blogspot.com/2011/03/monoliths-of-field.html
Thursday, 24 March 2011. Monoliths of the field. Words from my notebook 15/3/11. The stones were covered after Roger had tilled the land. The field was flat, both in texture and colour - no white spots beaming from the orangey-brown. It rained last night; the ground wet this morning, a grey sky held down by mist hovers to the south. The field has changed again. I wasn't even sure if the stones were still here after Roger had finished. Had they been pushed down under the surface? Rocks, soil, clay, grass,...

To The Field: Thoughts about The Field
http://tothefield.blogspot.com/2011/03/thoughts-about-field.html
Tuesday, 1 March 2011. Thoughts about The Field. There was a time. There was a time when this field was not a field;. It was a hill side. There was a time when this hill side was not a hill side;. It was simply earth. There was a time when this earth was not simply earth;. It was molten lava. There was a time. Labels: Thoughts about the field. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

To The Field: Dough and Crumble
http://tothefield.blogspot.com/2011/03/dough-and-crumble.html
Thursday, 24 March 2011. November 2010 - March 2011. Words from my notebook 6/3/11. I see the field in the distance. It looks different. Roger worked it on Friday, how do I know? I spoke to him then. It's been churned tilled,. Laid out to dry. The soil needs air; 'dough is no good, it needs to be like crumble.'. I still can't imagine growth here yet. It's a mess, turbulent waves of earth. But there will be a calm to this storm, and from its still surface there will be life. View my complete profile.
