Last week I went and installed some of the work that I have
made in response to the activities within the Biological Anthropological Research
Centre (BARC), University of Bradford, in the workspaces of the Centre itself. As part of the installation we made ‘interventions’
mixing my contemporary artworks with items from BARC’s collection. The image above shows some of the digital
embroideries based on x-rays in the Andersen Archive in the teaching samples display
case in the Keith Manchester Laboratory. Those of you with an attention to detail will
notice the mix of skulls ranging from Neolithic to modern human to apes.
The image below shows one of the Andersen
hand embroideries alongside some of the x-rays from the archive on the light
box used for teaching.
A big thanks must go to Drs Jo Buckberry, Andy Wilson and of
course Keith Manchester for their support and patience on this project.
