A blog by Jennifer Rooke documenting her residency and travels in Tasmania, 2014. For two weeks she will live and work at Kings Bridge Cottage in Cataract Gorge, exploring and recording the surrounding environment to produce a body of work which records her personal experience of being alone in the landscape.

Little boats full of tourists are quite often going past and looking up to the cottage. If you step out onto the verandah as they are going past then you can feel very important as they all wave to you. I feel too shy to do it often. At times it is like being in a zoo enclosure; the artist musing away up in their dreamy little cottage. This morning I was woken up by the cleaner knocking at the door. I didn't realise I had a cleaner! I hope it won't be too hard to come down from my ivory tower to enter back into reality.
