Building the Installation

This has been such a tiring week…….

I only had one day off – last Saturday, then I spent four days in work and two days at the Centre building my installation of boats.

I’d put the majority of the boats together on Monday – after saying that I didn’t want to take any workshops this week as I really wanted to get on with the project. I needed viewers to see what the finished item would look like and then they would get an idea of how they could contribute to it.

After all of the effort that had gone into the making of these boats, I was horrified to find that 200 of them barely filled a quarter of the room.

So every night after work this week, I cut out and painted as many as I could so that I had a nice stack to take with me today.

I do have a lot of boats to add – including the ones painted at my workshop last week, but for this week anyway, I feel that I have something to show for all of the work I have put in.
