@ZJAyres I feel strongly about this too. I would like to see a blanket ban across the universities. I think there's concern re: less opportunities but with planning, fundraising etc. the impact would be minimal & the gains - a strong message of value & respect - worth any extra effort.

Sadly, this is the outcome of much UK EDI work I'm familiar with, often because it's confused with widening participation. Without structural change, sprinkling protected characteristics through an organisation delivers all the right optics (short term) but little else.

The team certainly looked diverse, until you scratched the surface and discovered they’d all been schooled at a handful of elite institutions and their worldview was thus way narrower than one first imagined.

"A library of history and prehistory lie hidden under peat and turf; the books open and pages unfold if you know how and where to look. And there are places too, with paths to lead you there, that sing of a remoter past" ... Beautiful piece & nothing more immersive than a story.

@womensart1 This has reminded me of a beautifully woven bridal carpet many years ago with tanks, missiles etc. in a home close to the Afgan border in northern Pakistan. I didn't think through the connotations of it at the time and the potential status of the family/bride.

I took a stained glass class with Ann a few years ago. My very simple project was very difficult! so I appreciate the immense knowledge and skill together to produce this beautiful piece.

Lucky to have lived/worked in this stunning part of Pakistan - a beautiful thread of people & place traced through the practices of shepherding & 'shu', traditional wollen textile, production. Aspects remind me of C-19 collective making you've previously mentioned @wodieskodie .

Shu maker Khushtan told us about the importance of 'geeve', a social gathering to work as a group where craft making, play and ritual came together. Since men were not allowed in the geeve event, it gave the women more freedom and a space to express themselves.

A fascinating presentation by Jane Russell-O'Connor re: why are people drawn to mountainscapes and/or seascapes & what are the emotional experiences they have there? Unburdening, escaping, meditative, exhilarating, fearful ... spiritual connection & a strong desire to protect.

Most mosques feature a dome, called qubba in Arabic. The dome is a symbolic representation of the vault of heaven. The interior decoration of a dome often emphasises this symbolism using patterns to awe & inspire Here are 24 dome interiors in mosques across the world A thread…
