⭐️ The Circle Music Icons Auction ⭐️

Ahead of the global 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence, I am delighted to have brought together some of the world’s greatest female artists for a very special auction to help raise funds for the vital work of @TheCircleNGO.

Thanks to their generosity, you have a chance to own the signed, hand-written lyrics to Fallin’ by @aliciakeys, Agolo by @angeliquekidjo, Right On Time by @brandicarlile, and Your Power by @billieeilish. And there are also hand-written lyrics, signed by me, for Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This).

I have long believed that music can build bridges and bring people together and it is wonderful to see these phenomenal female artists stand side by side with women and girls around the world facing and fighting gender-based violence.

The auction proceeds will enable The Circle to support our grassroots partners helping women and girls to build lives free from abuse and fear, and advocate for long-term change to end the violence that will affect 1 in 3 women in their lifetime.

You can place a bid in the auction, or enter the sweepstake for just $10, to win one of these amazing items by visiting www.charitystars.com/thecircle . The auction will run for just two weeks until 5th December, and the sweepstake will run until 15th December. Follow @TheCircleNGO for more updates and details.

‘Another Dream Shattered’
Title of my latest conceptual imagery piece, shared on Instagram.
If anything represents the
Impermanent nature of existence, it has to be this image of broken glass…
A vessel/container that was once tangible, practical, beautiful and part of daily domestic life rendered jagged and potentially dangerous..
Impossible to restore..
I will be selling tiny shards to the highest bidder!
( am I being serious? )
Let me know!
Love Annie ❤️

I just saw this photograph for the first time since it was taken back in 1982 by Steve Rapport. It captures the way I still feel today.Clearly thinking some mischievous thoughts while waiting politely, but slightly outside the queue to board a plane goin’ somewhere..
Check out Steve’s work -

Join the @RHRN_climate Alliance and global partner @UnitedNationsHumanRights in calling for the UN Climate Change Conference @cop27_egypt to treat #ClimateChange as the #HumanRights crisis it is. The homes, lands, health – even lives of those most affected by climate change are at risk. By working together and supporting inclusive rights-based climate action for people and the planet, we can realize a better, more sustainable future for all. Link in bio

A newly found finch’s nest in the jasmine bush.
These amazing little birds sing their beautiful songs from early morning till sundown. They’re architects and builders to boot! Miraculous nature!
We could learn a lot from their innate skills!

“Where is my comfort zone? A simple place to call my own”
These kinds of red berries ( not to be mistaken for holly) have always given me joy.
They mark a change in the seasons and somehow feel comforting, in a world where ‘comfort’ is sometimes hard to find.
I notice that Xmas has come early in the shops.
Xmas being the secular consumerist version of Christmas for nit pickers of the world! 😬Love and Peas… ❤️🎶

We are all here as temporary visitors on this planet..
All human beings trying to get through this life experience.
It’s so easy to stir up the potent expressions of anger and hatred and almost impossible to reverse the damage this can cause, especially if you have a powerful public platform.
Hate speech is like pouring petrol on fire.
Unfortunately some people are drawn to wilfully mindless provocation. It is extremely dangerous and highly destructive.
That is why we should all be aware of what we say and how we say it. Recognise Fascism for what it is…
The opposite of
compassion and loving kindness..
The opposite of beauty and truth..
The opposite of decency and humanity.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with ‘liberty’.
Hate speech is toxic and abhorrent.
That’s why it needs to be recognised and called out wherever it occurs.
Love and Peace you guys ♥️
