I just learned that Kim Fielding has died. It really shocked me. He helped so many artists in this city, myself included. I ended up at Tactile Bosch on one of the first ever nights I came to Cardiff, sometime around year 2000. I was just visiting. I picked up 2 hitchhikers on Cathedral Road, who then asked me if I had room to fit a yurt in the boot, which they had stashed in the garden of Transport House. I took them to Tactile Bosch to an opening, and was totally delighted by the world I had stumbled into. We rehearsed the first Give It A Name production, Utah Blue at TB in the damp depths of winter. Kim gave us the space. In return I ate some roses for his camera. There are so many stories, but I will stop there. Fundamentally he made a whole lot of really exiting things possible for a lot of people. What a vacuum. What a loss.
