It feels like the gothic scene is slowly disappearing. Since moving to Thuringia, I feel more and more disconnected. Scene parties feel increasingly exhausting. I miss the joy, the beauty and the long nights.

A fruit bat's ode to the night

The night is....

Peaceful....Tranquil...

I pirouette under the moon

The bullfrogs sing ...

the crickets croon...

The night she speaks as a dance

A timeless embrace a blissful romance

A sweet soiree

A raspberry yogurt parfait

A far better thing than the fury of Day

Ever do my little feet pitter patter

Skip gallop and run

I am free and nothing matters

I wish I could turn off the sun

I feel full of flight

Effortless light

Wings with fur not feathers

The world is my playground

I am a tiny bat

Now and forever

I bathe in dew to beat the heat

I hang by my tiny feet

I seek a food that is ethical and kind

I've got berries on my mind

Nature's candy grows on trees

As sweet sands waft from saltwater taffy seas

I dance, I drift, I do ballet

Spirits uplift until the day

When I return to my little cave by the sea

And snuggle with my colony

A tiny bat will I always be

And that's okay, okay for me

A ROOM WITH A VIEW: Paul Nash’s ‘Skylight Landscape’ (1941) is a painting of the view across to the Malvern Hills. It has such a strange composition, for it is framed by the opening mechanism of the window. It makes us feel like we’re up high seeking out an imperfect peek at a sublime scene. It was painted at Madams, the home of his friend and great patron Clare Neilson, near Newent in Gloucestershire. The celebrated ‘Monster Field’ was on the adjacent farm, and Clare collected numerous works by him, most notably ‘Event on the Downs’ now in the @govartcol - much of their correspondence, photographs and works on paper were donated to @pallanthousegallery through @artfund by her godson Jeremy Greenwood and his partner Alan Swerdlow. Amongst them are photographs of Nash at this window - for he created a kind of studio in the space from where he painted the view across to the Malvern Hills. It reflects Nash’s interest in the interplay of objects and landscape, which is almost metaphysical. Jeremy remembers meeting Nash when he was staying at Madame as child during the war, and watching him paint. This is part of our displays in the 18th century townhouse - amongst a group of works including Barbara Hepworth, Ben Nicholson, Henry Moore, Tristan Hillier and John Armstrong. #paulnash #interior #malvern #landscape #neoromantic #clareneilson #modernism #modernbritishart #arthistory #pallanthousegallery (at Pallant House Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFgh2FOF_jM/?igshid=evuxejbrrpcn
