The Other Compass & The Other Stars
by youwillhearmecall
We are both storytellers. Lying on our backs, we look up at the night sky. This is where stories began, under the aegis of that multitude of stars which at night filch certitudes and sometimes returns them as faith.
– and our faces, my heart, brief as photos, John Berger 1984

A discussion session hosted by Emma Bolland and Judit Bodor about Empathy and Uncertainty in Creative Practice as part of ‘Redrawing the Maps’, a week of conversations, collaborations, screenings and workshops inspired by the work of John Berger. Redrawing the Maps takes place between 5-10 November 2012, in spaces around the John Berger: Art and Property Now exhibition at the Inigo Rooms, Somerset House, London.
Beautiful thoughtful and thought-provoking post. I so wish i could come to the discussion but I’m not in London until 14th. I feel sure itwill go really well. You have inspired me to read/re-read Berger books and I’ve just started this very one you quote here.All the best (and hope to see you soon)Jo X
