In September 2015, artists from Ireland, Leeds, Überlingen and Wiltz met in Camphill Dunshane for another art workshop. The idea was to create a pathway, a “diversity pond”, using glass, wood, wire, stones and colour.
For three days, people from Ireland, Korea, Holland, Luxembourg, Germany, France and England – architects, workers, consultants, artists, support workers, people with special needs, … – were working alongside each other to create their own space along the path.
In groups, the participants developed their own vision and creation; they painted, sawed, hammered, constructed and built. Not only artwork came about, but also new connections and friendships. After three days, the work was ready to be presented and celebrated in a round tour and a big party at the bar – “Would you pass the glass?”

Some artists came to KCAT in April 2015 for 3 complete days from Leeds, Ueberlingen and Wiltz.

Some of us got to know them in 2014 in Luxembourg, Leeds and Germany.

I got to know some of them on my first art-trip abroad.

We had a hat-making fun course with them

at KCAT which Saturio Alonso was in charge of. He is Spanish.

I think I liked the showing off of the hats most of all though I enjoyed our meeting on our comments on how it went beforehand.

I hope we can do it again with a new theme as variety is

the spice of life!
