My work ‘Declaration’ is now safely in Leeds and hopefully already on the wall. The wood was quite fragile and I was worried that if I kept drilling holes into it, it would shatter completely. Therefore before it went on its travels, I coated the back of the top layer of wood with a thick coating of PVA and stuck a rectangle of cloth to it. I was hoping the textile would give the piece some flexibility while also holding it in place.
I don’t often work with wood, so it’s all a learning process.
If you happen to be in Leeds from tomorrow, please look up the Basement Arts Project in Beeston.
