ABOUT ME
based in Manchester but with no fixed abode for the next three months, we have set our sights on India and Nepal to go off and see what we can find!! We are hoping to paint our way up into the Himalayan foothills, and otherwise explore as much of India as we can....
In Manchester, we spend our times working - at a bar and spraypaint warehouse - and building ideas and shared space for community and local artists. We look to strengthen connections between people in Manchester and THE WORRLD!! we like to read, climb, create stuff, plant, learn, talk, dance, play....
PHILOSOPHY
WHAT IS THIS LIFE, IF, FULL OF CARE
WE HAVE NO TIME TO STAND
AND
STARE?
