A 12 hour durational performance that I researched for/documented. See whatiheardabouttheworld.co.uk for more from the day.
"An attempt to map the entire world, alphabetically, in a day. To name every country in its own language, and to collect a story for every country, and to place it, correctly, on the map, from memory. Using cardboard, paper, pens and post-it notes, and with the help of the audience, Third Angel and mala voadora build a portrait of the world, as it was, as it is now, and as it might be in the future.
Story Map is a durational research performance that gathers and exchanges stories.
The stories gathered are of fakes and replicas, facsimiles and substitutes; not deceptions - the inauthentic used knowingly in the everyday."

MONTRÉAL COMPLÈTEMENT CiRQUE (Montreal Completely Circus), Montreal, Canada
MONTRÉAL COMPLÈTEMENT CiRQUE (Montreal Completely Circus) is a Festival that brings people together across the city every July with a stunning circus program. For 11 days, Montreal moves to the rhythm of circus arts. Its venues, streets, parks, and sidewalks become stages to showcase colourful, high-flying performances from here and around the world.
An event not to be missed, MONTRÉAL COMPLÈTEMENT CiRQUE presents diversity in all its forms and expressions by creating moments where the most talented artists from the circus world come together to perform.
Created in 2010, it is the result of a collective dream that brings together TOHU—the project’s driving force—along with the support of Cirque Éloize, Les7 doigts de la main, Cirque du Soleil, the National Circus School, and En Piste. Together, they pooled their expertise, resources and will to create the first North American international festival dedicated to circus arts.

Dura-Europos, Syria
Wood, leather and bronze
Despite the countless made, this is the only complete surviving Roman legionary long shield (scutum). It is from Rome's Syrian frontier, where the dry climate preserved the wood and its remarkable painted leather surface, but its semi-cylindrical shape is now more curled. On a military red background are Roman victory and regimental motifs including an eagle with a laurel wreath, winged Victories and a lion. Soldiers painted their shields for personal and unit recognition in a variety of designs. The centre hole is missing its metal boss.*
From the exhibition
Legion - life in the Roman army
(February – June 2024)
From family life on the fort to the brutality of the battlefield, this exhibition experienced Rome's war machine through the people who knew it best – the soldiers who served in it.
Few men are born brave; many become so from care and force of discipline.
Vegetius, Fourth-century Roman writer
The Roman Empire spanned more than a million square miles and owed its existence to its military might. By promising citizenship to those without it, the Roman army – the West's first modern, professional fighting force – also became an engine for creating citizens, offering a better life for soldiers who survived their service.
Expansive yet deeply personal, this exhibition transported you across the empire, as well as through the life and service of a real Roman soldier, Claudius Terentianus, from enlistment and campaigns to enforcing occupation then finally, in Terentianus' case, retirement. Objects included letters written on papyri by soldiers from Roman Egypt and the Vindolanda tablets – some of the oldest surviving handwritten documents in Britain. The tablets, from the fort near Hadrian's wall, revealed first-hand what daily life was like for soldiers and the women, children and enslaved people who accompanied them.
Roman military history perhaps stretches as far back as the sixth century BC but it wasn't until the first emperor, Augustus (63 BC – AD 14), that soldiering became a career choice. While the rewards of army life were enticing – those in the legions could earn a substantial pension and those entering the auxiliary troops could attain citizenship for themselves and their families – the perils were real. Soldiers were viewed with fear and hostility by civilians – not helped by their casual abuses and extra roles as executioners and enforcers of occupation – and they could meet grim ends off, as well as on, the battlefield. Finds in Britain, featured in the exhibition, included the remains of two soldiers probably murdered and clandestinely buried in Canterbury, suggesting local resistance.
What did life in the Roman army look like from a soldier's perspective? What did their families make of life in the fort? How did the newly-conquered react? Legion explored life in settled military communities from Scotland to the Red Sea through the people who lived it.

To explain this photo to you, you may need some background. This photo is a metaphor for my life. Before these walls used to be beige and cream. The brick was brown and dull. Before this, this room in my home was not figured out. It was mismatched and confused. This room before was me. All I added to this room was paint. I added brighter colors to every part of the room. The top paint, the bottom paints, and the brick. This room is whole. This room is me. I found my paint. I found my happiness in myself. I am whole.
