The Space in Time Revisited, 2024
The Space in Time, (2019-2024)Sculptural works and durational performance piece
This work recovered the sewn objects from my initial project ‘The Space in Time’, that was created over lockdown in 2019, where I had spent over 100 hours sewing an abudance of my belongings in recycled white cotton as a creative way to cope with the limbo period of COVID. After 5 years of these objects having been left to collect dust I wanted to activate them by exhibiting the pieces and unpicking them from their material cocoon.
They were exhibited at Greatorex Street Gallery, in Whitechapel for 2 days and unpicked, in my 3 hour performance on the last day, where I invited visitors to take a blade and unpick alongside me whilst conversating about objects, memory, isolation and freedom.
Many thanks to photographer Niamh Quigley and curator Lily Petch.
