Can’t sleep – and when I do I’m troubled by giant dream parasites. Might be something to do with the fact that I’ve just dosed the family with worming tablets and am working my way through washing all bedlinen, towels, bathmats, nighties. If it’s not that it’s nits I suppose. Or the fleas from the neighbours cat. Kids and pets = yuk.
I’l try to think about happy things instead. My piece for Leeds Light Night is coming along nicely – it’s called ‘Inside Out’. I’ve just written the blurb for the brochure, as follows:
‘Inside Out’ a site specific installation by Rachel Howfield (www.rachelhowfield.net)
For one night only, this new work, made specially for Light Night, offers a playful look at the notion that ‘you are what you wear’.
Satisfy your voyeuristic tendencies, and spend some time loitering on the street to watch video projections or peeking into changing cubicles to see an intriguing installation.
