Artists Talk: OFF-GRID (2014) 
curated by Kathrin Bohm, Haystacks

Haystacks is a series of monthly events about rural projects and practices, our relationships with the rural and rural-urban connections.Grace Ndiritu, for the first time shares her research and observations into alternative communties and nomadic lifestyles over the past 14 years. As an artist, she took the radical decision in 2012 only to spend time in the city when necessary, and to otherwise live in rural, alternative and often spiritual communities. Her research took her to Thai and Tibetan Buddhist monasteries, permaculture communities in New Zealand, neo-tribal festivals such the 'Burning Man' in Nevada, a Hare Krishna ashram and the 'Findhorn' New Age community in Scotland.

Haystack 08 was kindly hosted by Celine Condorelli.
