Skoki

A reading with drawings

The text describes a visit to the allotment gardens of Skoki, a small town in Poland. The drawings were made of the allotments on location, and are digitally blown up from A4 size to human scale. The drawings were originally made using a green biro and paper purchased in the town.

The text begins:

'I spent one week in Poland last summer. We were staying in a small town called Skoki. I walked around the town and around the lake...'

The reading eventually leads the audience to the town's allotment gardens, and retells the experiences of the people who tend these plots.
