Homage to Yellow was a performance made last year.

  • I had to produce my own wallpaper.
  • I researched the medical history of Worcester.
  • I read the short story, the Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Wallpaper design below.

I took from the the research, Charles Hastings a local; medical/surgical doctor from the 1800’s who did allot for Worcester but with little recognition so I decided to hide him within the wallpaper, a short poem and research about him.

I used the fact that the main character from The Yellow Wallpaper becomes sick and is disgusted by the wallpaper. I used Baked beans (I cannot stand them) to paste the wallpaper on the wall.
