It is now the morning and day after the Wannsee Berlin Faerie gathering- and in some ways I am in "mourning".
It was a very difficult and yet wonderful week for me at the Wannsee gathering organized by Butch-B. i served as KitchenMeister making certain we ate well and were on budget for the 30-40 radical fareies who came to partake in this faerie Space experience.
I am incredibly tired and struggle with getting back on finding my way to productivity.
The day has been passing along very slowly as I try to get back into the menatl state of working and focussing.
I will have an art opening on 11September and must finish my work in the next day.
Update:
Its 11September I am finally able to relax a bit and also reflect on some aspects of the gathering we have just had. I havent been to a faerie gathering in a very very very long time. I can still feel some of the positive aspects of the gatehring on my "Skin" as it were. On my tongue and in my balls.
As usual there will be some of these faeries/people who I will keep at a measured distance while others who I have known before-are now even closer to me.
It was a very interesting experience collaborating with a Berlin faerie with whom i tend to do very little socializing- we dont think alike and thus the fact that our "tasks" for the collaboration did not overlap. But it must be said that I completely respect and admire his skills and I believe that he has also and does respect mine-in this manner our collaboration worked well. I was also unwilling to take any spotlight away from his intiatory role in this gathering. He did the research and negotiated the price and conditions- as a known native this would have been perhaps more difficult if not impossible for me to do.
Butch-B. came back to Berlin to discover that his closest friend Gerd had died- a close friend he had known since some 20plus years. He too is now in mourning- morning the mornings he will never spend again with his pal.
