'A confluence is an act of merging that also describes the junction of two rivers. ‘Confluence’ was an art installation in the beautiful 12th-century St Mary Burham church, inspired by a recent archaeological project ‘Finding Eanswythe’ which explored the life of St Eanswythe, the Anglo-Saxon, Kentish royal saint and granddaughter of Ethelbert, the first English king to convert to Christianity under Augustine. The installation was a collaborative project by two artists – Maureen Jordan and Caroline Bugby - who met while both attending Vermont Studio Center in Johnson VT, where each came to see connections in the other’s work.'
