Started installing today at the Big Blue Building temporary space where I’m re-trying my Golden Seed installation. Everyone else is installing at the weekend, so I’m in a position of some luxury, having the whole place to myself to spread out and construct my timber framed structure which forms the central part of my installation.
The downside of this luxurious solitude is that there’s no-one to help with the tricky bits! The loading and unloading from van and car; the lifting and moving and propping up. Over the years I have learned how to to do a lot of things single-handedly, but I have to admit, it doesn’t get any easier! It took all day, but I did manage to finish constructing the three frameworks which form the three sides of my growing chamber. Tomorrow I’ll stretch the silver mylar film over them with the help of a very welcome volunteer helper (thanks Erin!) so that hopefully by Wednesday I’ll be ready to erect the whole structure with the help of another welcome helper (thanks Clare!)
I think I’m on target, but still a lot to do.
