About
And then it wept, attracting fragments with which it eventually glittered brings together translucent sculptures and paintings, quilted objects, embroidered works and spoken word.
The materials used such as tissue, paper towels, nets, glue and ink have the potential to tear, seep and break.
This fragility and the resulting accidents are left exposed, creating space for new ways of being in the world.
The sculptural objects, linked through an exploratory, gestural and hand-made process, have grown together to form a site-responsive story.
