TH: Rearrangement of supportive 'scaffold' for hanging sculptural work. Artfully casual heap of my sketches displayed, for a time at least. LB: More planning, moving and arranging things today. I'm especially excited by all the metal grids I found in the yard, and extremely grateful to Poppy, Tim and Sarah for pandering to my whims and to Si for his help and advice. We have constructed the perfect, walk-through space for installations. Click here for an overview of the day. LB: Looking back to look forward: Shadow sacks, 2019, in a rusty cage Shadow sacks, 2019, 3 suspended Shadow sacks are knitted, felted cocoon-like sculptures. I made a series of them for B-Wing and installed Shadow sacks at B-Wing in Sept. 2019, as 2 different installations. I haven't installed them anywhere else between now and then, so I found it especially interesting to work with them today, and in such a contrasting setting. They were designed to hang or to be suspended, and I do think that the hanging installation is definitely more effective. I used meat hooks and chains for this installation, and I think it's very striking against the white walls, hanging from the grid. However, I think I'd also like to try suspending more of them as well, maybe with black wool. It's so helpful to have the opportunity to try out various different installation ideas.
