 This residency was situated in a house amongst vineyards in an old part of Istria. Florence and I were among friends and we are all highly motivated individuals. Therefore we began an informal discussion that developed over a week, with ideas becoming more focused over time. Simultaneously we continued to expand our scope of research as we shared our knowledge and experience and chased down leads. Whilst not consulting literature or media we firstly located our own knowledge and feelings about climate change and the stories that have and could emerge to make meaning of this. From this we narrowed the area of interest from clasical mythology to weather lore. This residency was situated in a house amongst vineyards in an old part of Istria.

 The collaborative process built on the history of my past collaborations with Nik. The direction of the research was driven by me with the inclusion of interruption and re-interpretation by both Nik and Maja.
