Memory boxes
'Cloth and Memory': This artist has displayed a series of beautifully coloured felted books, in the wall cavities originally used by workers to store bobbins. This is just one of a number of memory boxes she has made along the walls.

A highly experienced artist, her response for C&M will use the 'silencing' context of felt as a metaphor for the absorption of sound and memory. Intimate works based on the original ledgers and sample books are placed in the wall cavities originally used by workers to store bobbins.

I like those books! and the idea of "memory boxes"..
ReplyDeleteI like the shot and the colours; didn't see the previous gossamer web as art - I guess I'm a philistine where 'art' is concerned.
