Supported by Feis Rois and Creative Scotland, Atlas Arts and Seall Performing Arts collaborated to invite me to lead a youth project on the Isle of Skye

​

"Nowhere Art Club, a space for 11-17 year olds to hang out. experiment, express, pretend, play, question, dream and have a bit of fun throughout the sessions. Celebrating creative tools (like dance, writing, filming and more) as a means for experimenting with 'the way things are' and discovering potential for the way things could be"

​

The name 'Nowhere Art Club' came from conversations with Ainslie (Atlas Arts) about the idea of 'utopia'. I enjoyed how in its roots it means, 'nowhere' or 'no place' . I thought that it was an exciting prospect for us to imagine throughout this project, in the knowledge that it is impossible to reach such a destination... It also felt like a name that fit well since the club didn't have a home; we used different spaces, indoor and outdoor, and also in the 'nowhere' space of online.
