The session
Home. School. Grandma's house. The shop on the corner. A place you always wanted to visit and never did. Everyone drew their childhood as a map, with themselves at the centre, aged about seven.
It was the most international session the Circle has run: fourteen people, several continents, and the same handful of places turning up again and again in completely different countries. The instruction was simply to bring your memories, your colours and your stories.
“Not made of roads, but of memories.”
