Sally Kindberg and the Triola
A few weeks ago while looking for something else entirely I discovered my daughter’s old Triola, a musical instrument made by C.A.Seydel Sohne, a kind of melodica made for children. What a delight! To avoid annoying my upstairs neighbours, I … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg in Cornwall again
With a fresh notebook, a pen or two and my walking boots I set out for Penzance, feeling my usual excitement as the train crossed over the Tamar from Devon via the Brunel Bridge. Operational since 1859, it enabled an … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg and more notes for Stranger, a graphic work in progress
Early events were disturbing: gaslighting, mysterious letters, a bit of levitation, the occasional exorcism. And a missing father. Later, after happier times, when the person you trust the most says ‘I’m not who you think I am’, you start asking … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg’s 2017 notebook, Swedenborgian dust, and a missing tortoise?
Recently I looked at one of my notebooks from 2017 which recorded an exploratory visit to Swedenborg House, and another with its director. A pencilled note on a Post-It fell out of the notebook’s pages and I can’t remember the … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg in Nottingham Castle tunnels
Last weekend I revisited Nottingham, where I grew up after we moved there from Devon, where I was born. Nottingham Castle is built on the top of a steep sandstone rock honeycombed with ancient tunnels and caves. I’d always wanted … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg in Cornwall (part two)
I visited Cornwall recently to collect my small travelling Museum of Dust – its next stop is to briefly join an exhibition at the Art Workers Guild, then on to Swedenborg House (where I sometimes run workshops), later this year. … Continue reading

Sally Kindberg’s notebooks (more of them)
Pages from a few of my many notebooks in the last year. I use my notebooks as a visual diary, a nursery for new ideas or notes for work in progress.

Sally Kindberg notebook page about family pressure
Talk about family pressure! But later today, as light relief from today’s (mostly leaked) Budget announcements from this awful government (resmbling Leo Baxendale’s comic strip frame below?), I shall visit the wonderful world of Beano.

Sally Kindberg’s notebook selection 2021 so far …
A few notebook pages, roughly in chronological order, sometimes reflective, often to do with journeys, and the use of Pritt Stick usually obvious. Cutting out and sticking is such a delight. Occasionally content will find its way into a … Continue reading
Sally Kindberg at the Eye Clinic
More notebook pages, this time about my latest visit to the eye clinic. I’ve added the little eye card which I acquired some years ago when briefly visiting a religious cult in Canada. Loved the card but didn’t join as … Continue reading
