Today's workshop at the University of Nottingham was on Bronze Age metalwork from watery environments and the implications for curatorial practice. Got to hang out with all these lovely things and also look at a replica Iron Age chariot :)

Drumming yesterday at the Brandenberg Gate in support of imprisoned climate activists and against repressive laws for protests in Germany and the UK

Another wonderful weekend of thinking, learning and doing - making baskets using willow grown on our community's land. Very pleased with the result 😊

This weekend I thoroughly enjoyed learning to cast a replica copper axe head, based on Ötzi the Iceman's, and hafting it on an ash handle cut from one of our own trees.

Where am I?

Really enjoyed talking to visitors at Shrewsbury Museum about prehistoric metalworking at my Melting Point session. Handling artefacts engages people like nothing else!

Visited the very talented Rowan Taylor at his forge today to collect some replica artefacts for my handling session at Shrewsbury Museum next week.
