Game On



I am very excited to have a project selected as part of Utopia, a festival marking the 500th anniversary of Thomas More’s famous book.   The festival will be hosted at Somerset House, the Courtauld Institute of Art and the Cultural Institute at Kings College London in 2016.  We are hope to be installing work in the Inigo Rooms at Somerset House during the summer.

I will be once again collaborating with Dr Matthew Howard and the Centre for Robotic Research at Kings College London.  We plan to combine e-textiles with digitally printed and stitched textiles to make art quilts that respond to the audience’s presence.  Those of you who know me well will know that I am passionately interested in bio medical data and this will be a theme within the work.  We will look at the positive effect IVF has had on peoples’ lives.
Just as with the Cloth and Memory 2 exhibition and the Crafts Council Parallel Practice residency I will be blogging about the progress of the project and I hope you will enjoy following the story.
