My first workshop at Edenbridge is with a couple of young people and Roly and Rose, two older people who live in the village, both are brillant. It's a little strained at first, two young people sitting around a table with older people who they've never met before, and coupled with the fact this person who turns up calls themselves an artist and gets them talking about what they think of each other and then asks them to interview each other film and video!
Some lovely comments when the young boy asks Roly what he used to do when he was younger, as it's boring in Edenbridge and nothing to do, he was looking for guidance! Roly talked about playing in the fields and woods pretending to be robin hood or game of cowboys and indians. But ultimately Roly gained cool points when he announced that nowadays he has a Sony WII and plays on that occasionally.
To be continued next week.....
