"Awaken" - the Glasgow School of Art Archive project

I recently created a piece called "Drawn Out" for the "Awaken" exhibition that opened in the Mackintosh Gallery at the Glasgow School of Art on Friday, 23rd January. All of the staff affiliated with the Textiles Department at GSA were asked to select some pieces from the GSA Archives and Collection and use them to inspire new interpretive works. The exhibition was curated by Jimmy Stephen-Cran (Head of Textiles Department) and Helen McGilp in the School of Design. The show is up until the 28th February. Check it out! Here are some snapshots of my piece:

Mackintosh Re-interpreted Exhibition

The first showing of the Mackintosh Re-interpreted exhibition that we created at CAT for the Hunterian Art Gallery in Glasgow finished in December 2008. Versions of the exhibition will be shown next in the south of France (Port-Vendres) and at the Hill House in Helensburgh, Scotland. Both venues plan to have their exhibitions installed for the beginning of April. Here is a silent video we created of our process, along with some of the exhibition photos.
