 has worked over many years with a variety of found objects, materials and surfaces which have come to evoke memory, forgotten histories and a sense of place. Tracey will exhibit a new body of work using digital print techniques that explores loss and discovery, the forgotten and remembrance, solitude and place.

...and the sorrow.
Lee Harpers installation...and the sorrow... will be a powerful grouping of coverings and garments which respond to the theme of Forced Adoption in Tasmania. Utilising uniforms, veils and baby blankets, sensitive poetic and considered texts will be embroidered on to each object transforming them into statements reflecting the mood and emotion of the contemporary community and the acknowledgement of a shamed practice.

Forged Environments (working title)
The exhibition collaboration, Forged Environments, will examine the shaping and transformation of landscapes in Tasmania through the process of habitation. The artists will investigate the emergence of artificial landscapes that result from the structuring and creation of urban habitats. Thier work will identify patterns and formulae inherent within these landscapes that contrast with the modelling of their natural state. In doing this, they will attempt to deconstruct traditional representations of the landscape.Alight A Sculpture By Adam Long is a mixed media by Adam Long which was uploaded on June 29th, 2011.

Can I still divide and transplant this perennial?
How late can I plant trees or anything else?
First, the tulip bulb controversy. I say “controversy” because some people get themselves all worked up about timing. The generally accepted wisdom says to plant tulips 6 to 8 weeks prior to first frost, or more accurately: when soil temperatures drop consistently below sixty degrees, which for this part of Elkhart means roughly September to October. Personally, I think this is a cart of animal fertilizer; here is why. Tulips, like other spring bulbs, require a chilling period to break dormancy. They were designed with this mechanism to prevent premature, out of season growth. Tulips require, on average, twelve to fourteen weeks of moist soil temperatures below forty degrees. Name me a year where late spring and summer soil temperatures dip that low for that long of a time…still waiting…go ahead and Google it. The real answer, in my opinion, is you can plant a tulip bulb any time. It just happens to be a lot easier to plant your tulip patch on cleared land.
Next, the question regarding herbaceous perennials, shrubs and trees. This is another overly thought out topic. In gardening, like in the rest of life, there is the ideal and then there is, “Oh man I forgot to do that five weeks ago. Am I out of luck for this year?” I tell people, start by answering your gardening question with a little science – a little biology, really – for the “ideal” is based on what is happening biologically. Standard advice says to get your newly acquired or divided herbaceous perennials in the ground one month or so prior to the ground freezing, or immediately after flowering (unless it is a late fall bloomer like asters and mums). That is the ideal since it provides ample time for roots to establish and store up some energy against the rigors of winter. Again, I think that is somewhat a cart load of smelly stuff. If you are panicked, do not be. Fear not, my dirty handed friend. When dealing with conditions outside the “ideal”, one just has to take extra measures and accept some risk of failure. Your perennial just might not make it regardless of what I tell you here. Sorry.
Having said that, there are some precautions you can take to increase your chances of seeing beautiful leaves unfurl when spring air arrives.
If dividing, and really this is true anytime, make sure you get as much root system as possible. This is the plant’s starch cellar, storing up energy for the spring push.
Be sure the newly placed plant is watered regularly, even if leaves at the top die back. Roots are still alive and growing down there so, feed Seymour what it wants.
Mulch around the root zone with a nice thick layer of leaves or wood chips. This will allow a slightly longer warm period for root growth, and it also buffers the extremes winter brings to those baby roots.
If planting a large tree, you may need to stake it through the winter to prevent the root ball rocking right out of the ground if it lacked an opportunity to establish.
How do I know this can be done? Because I have healed in hundreds of perennials and large woody plants over the years, ABOVE ground with wood chips and they go on to be stars in their fields. Sticking the plant in the ground late, even after the ground is frozen, is no different from sticking a pot under a very thick layer of organic matter. In a way, it is actually a better way to temporarily overwinter plant stock.
Hope these tips have eased your mind and given you a chance to warm up whilst reading. Happy planting!
Our mild climate is more forgiving than most. Certain bad scheduling is easier to accommodate. However, the mild winters do not sustain many bulbs after their first year. Planting on time is not so much a problem as what should be planted for our climate. There are a few plants that should not even be sold here.An investigation conducted by the Jordanian Media Credibility Monitor (AKEED) has revealed that the WikiLeaks document under the ID "10AMMAN87" was unrelated to "facilitating the selling of companies of the country and giving Dubai Capital intermediation rights to bring investors," as reported by the media. The WikiLeaks document under this ID was in fact titled "Jordan: New Cabinet Puts a Fresh Face on the Wall." This was a reference to the official directive to display the picture of Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II next to that of His Majesty the King.
The publishing of the document and the reply afterwards by former Prime Minister Samir Rifai piqued the interest of local news websites. Between 6 and 13 July 2018, these websites published more than 38 stories on "Samir Rifai and Jordan Dubai Capital Company" after the document was circulated on some social media accounts and an external website. AKEED did this report after receiving more than one request for verifying the truth of this information.
The story on the document ran as follows: "A U.S. State Department cable, leaked by WikiLeaks, revealed a series of circulars issued by the Cabinet of Jordanian Prime Minister Samir Rifai that are contrary to previous government policies."
The incorrect WikiLeaks document, dated 7 January 2010, notes "the issuance of instructions to facilitate the selling of state-owned companies to Dubai Capital Company…"
The AKEED investigation revealed that the document issued by U.S. Ambassador to Jordan R. Stephen Beecroft on 7 January 2010 spoke about the Cabinet of Prime Minister Samir Rifai, who was newly appointed then to this position, issuing "circulars to government offices that aim at illustrating a break from the policies of the previous government." It had nothing to do with the activities of Dubai Capital. Some local media outlets published a translation of this document on 4 January 2011.
Rifai's reply to his role in Dubai Capital focused on his denial of any connection to the company. His name has been linked to the company since he became prime minister in 2009. He said: "My employment connection with Jordan Dubai Capital ended around nine years ago. I did not own a single share in the company. Nor do I own a single share in any company for that matter. " Rifai said that this information is aimed at "mounting an attack and causing distortion for political purposes."
He explicitly called on the Social Security Corporation (SSC) to "break its silence and produce facts and figures on Jordan Dubai Capital and its shareholders and projects, and how its profit reflected on SSC and Jordanian citizens as shareholders." He said that he had repeatedly sent this message, but that there had been no response.
In the first reply concerning the case, the Social Security Investment Fund confirmed in an exclusive statement to AKEED that "the Social Security Corporation/Investment Fund (previously Investment Unit) was a founding partner of Jordan Dubai Capital by 25% of its capital in 2005. This continued until 2012 when the company liquidated all its investments." The Fund said that "the company had invested in numerous sectors, such as energy, infrastructure projects, and real estate."
On investment in the electricity sector, the Fund said that "it
