A few days in S France round the corner from Marseille. Sun
swimming, some walking and great food. Caught up with The Mucem in
Marseille on the way back to the airport they had Fashion-Folklore https://www.mucem.org/en/fashion-folklore
a show that set out the many connections
between folk costume and couture. Some stunning pieces with great labels. The
role of making and ownership, such as community and how they develop
traditional costumes verses the individual involved in couture. Cultural
appropriation was touched also on. Got off plane in Stansted - drove to Luton
and got on a plane to Glasgow to see a Hanna Tuulikki performance in the
cathedral - the bird that never flew - beautifully ethereal setting off
the glorious space. Managed to check out Alter Altar by Jasleen Kazur at
Tramway - a fantastic space but the text for the show did a lot of heavy
lifting. After an amazing meal at Celentano’s got the plane back to
Luton and finally home. What day is it again?
