You might remember my piece '1 hours production = 1 ½ miles =
15 lengths' that a created for Lesley Millar’s show 'Cloth and Memory 2' at Salts
Mill, Saltaire, West Yorkshire. The
piece contains my biometric data recorded whilst running in the Spinning room at the
mill as a metaphor for woollen cloth production in the 19th
century. I made the piece specifically
for the space but have been thinking how I could also show you in other
venues. Its 100 m in length and whilst I had
the luxury of a plinth that long at Salts Mill I know that is unlikely to be
repeated.
So I have been thinking how I could show this piece again in
another venue…..one without an enormous plinth!
This year I will be showing the piece at Festival Of Quilts, NEC, Birmingham 1st - 4th August. We will hang the piece from the ceiling letting it drop from the 15m ceiling and letting it rise again before wrapping it around the stand itself.
