WAITING FOR GODOT

On a bare road in the middle of nowhere, two world-weary friends await the arrival of the mysterious Godot. While waiting, they speculate, bicker, joke and ponder life’s greater questions. As dusk begins to fall, two figures appear on the horizon. Regarded as one of the most significan­t plays of the twentieth century, Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett is a masterpiec­e that draws endless interpreta­tions. Waiting for Godot comes to the Hawk’s Well Theatre this Friday and Saturday.

ETHEREAL SPACE

The notion of finding the ethereal elements within these landscapes is my current challenge, and as a painter I am fascinated in the relationsh­ip between finding my own solitude within the landscape while also trying to understand the historical meaning of the sublime in landscape painting.”
