Hairself
How near I had forgot
Materials: Crocheted from artificial hair
Dimensions: 16 cm x 12 cm
How gratifying to have finished a piece of work! I’ve made this for Collectible, the first exhibition curated by Rosalind Davis and Annabel Tilley as part of their ingenious, thriving brainchild Zeitgeist Arts Projects. The artists were asked to contribute a piece of up to A4-size, within a price range of £ 50,- to 500,- So nice to be invited to take part – it is proof of the fruitful relationship arising from working on Extra-Ordinary at Core Gallery (curated by Rosalind Davis and Jane Boyer) which still serves as a measuring stick for any show I’m involved in.
This is not the only piece I’ve been working on, there’s a larger project which is taking rather longer, as, when fatigue is at its worst, I have ragdoll arms, but the wait will be worth it, if I say so myself.
