2007 China
Glynn was invited along with six other international artists to exhibit her paintings in a multinational modern art exhibition titled
'Being' at the
Zhu Qizhan Art Museum in
Shanghai 2007. The gallery is a public contemporary art museum in the Hongkou District. The exhibition theme ‘Being’ looked at the importance of nature, animals and the environment.
I also presented a multi media work with narration based on my Strange Memories film for the opening ceremony of the exhibition working with a local performer Shao Bai who narrated in Mandarin.

In 2006 & 2007 the first stage was completed which was script development: exploring the theatrical ideas within the script. Glynn worked with Anne-Louise Rentell (director) and Shane Lomman (lighting designer), Helen McLean and Jess Waterhouse (performers) to investigate the theatrical potential of the work in pre-existing forms (painting, songs and text). A number of scenes from the text were selected to explore the integration of image and sound. Peter Dalmazzo assisted with technical support.
In 2008 development of the full script continues.
