PITA the history

small worlds two


small worlds
is a pita-pata gathering
in autumn and winter
in the natural playscape

lead artists
rebecca russell
ken evans

















small worlds two

we created creatures and decorations 
for the tree trunk



one day we want to cover 
all the trees
and 
all the walls
and 
all the logs
with creatures and decorations

like Kusama covers with dots

the berries are hawthorn berries
they are everywhere here
growing on the side of the road
Yonke showed them to me
they don't lose their colour

the creatures have such personality
they seem to be 
characters in search of an author

the creatures, creators 
and other creations 
spread beyond the tree trunk


and my prediction has proved totally incorrect
the parents and children who have begun creating together 
have consistently continued to create
with a break for food
for nearly two hours

they work side by side
they work independently together
they continue to share
chat and fossick together
it's beautiful to see

pita-pata

it seems we have a resident possum
he or she
hard to tell 
made a dash across the garden
then appeared in our tree
with a friend

some more pictures from 
the gathering







looking forward to the final gathering in this series
