Seeing Our History on Museum Walls: A Moment of Reflection
17/08/2016

The Madness has ended.

We have a rare still moment to sit and just ponder on what we have achieved.

Sat in a chair, in the quiet museum space, gazing at our images,our history. Our stories,our heritage.

It’s a bizarre experience. It’s strange. It’s my favorite word. It’s surreal.

A few people wander around wordlessly, looking intently at the visual offerings and I want to question, I want to probe. I want to know their thoughts.

But I don’t ask, I watch as they walk slowly away.
