The Nancy Ward Residency / summer 1991





"The Nancy Ward" was time and space provided to me by Artspace in Peterborough Ontario. For a two month period I wonder the streets finding things to paint on, furniture, cardboard an Ice cream cone sign. One way or another everything ended up with "romantic" landscapes on it.

During this time there was a weekly "Cerebrate" or "poetry Slam" that was documented on both video and audio tape. during these evenings I would occasionally sing a song (watch video for sample) but mostly told an on going serial story" the future adventures of Black Betty" present as if it were a 1930's Radio Soap., local writers and actors also present there own work.
