I am passionate about outdoor recreational spaces for all ages, public pools in particular. I&#8217;ve joined LJ because my other main love is art, especially the contemporary and the ephemeral. Fiona&#8217;s practice really speaks to me for those reasons and how she strives to create access to public collections through site specific storytelling. Fiona and I are currently developing two walks tilted Moonlight Meanders, further exploring walking art and urban play. I&#8217;d really love to hear more about your current projects or works and help keep building LJ&#8217;s collective.
