A FAB Intervention, curated by Tim Kelly and Melanie Ezra.
​As part of Fringe Arts Bath festival,  A Fab Intervention uses performance and art as tools to make the streets of Bath a better place. A Fab Intervention is a series of performative acts and public interventions by a team of South Wales based artists.
A Fab Intervention shows how performative acts disturbing the public flow in Bath’s main streets can be a positive method of engaging the people with the arts. Scribblers, painters, performers, poets, and storytellers explored Bath and reacted to the rich diversity of its people. A break from the regular busker/shopper relationship on Bath’s streets can make the environment a positive place to be and challenging the social norms between performers and public.

Live Writing Performance, mapping psychic and physical space on the street
2015
I provided a text-as-performance document, or a set of instructions, detailing 'Instructions on Drawing  a Bath in Bath (given from a Bath)'
The instructions were exhibited along with a bowl of bath bombs, and a map detailing Union Street, Bath, where the performance would take place, and Union Street, Nantyffyllon, where my Bath took place. The instructions exist as proof of performance, even if no one followed them. 
The work was inspired by Sophie Calle and Paul Auster.
