This is a detail of the hanging.   I was printing on gut as a metaphor for ageing human skin, gut looks fragile and frail but it has enormous strength.  
I had great fun doing this, my butcher was intrigued at me asking for so much sausage skin, he kept asking how many sausages are you going to make?    I had to tell him it was for art - so in the end I took in a piece I had done without the printing for them to see and feel.  At first I would ask for it in metres and then cottoned on that if I asked for it by weight it would be much easier for them, after all it wasn't a fabric shop.

Ways of Seeing

Ways of Seeing is an exhibition which was held at the Foyer Gallery, at the Art School which is part of the Australian National University in Canberra. Sharing the exhibition with two other textile artists, Bev Moxon and Leonie Andrews. We all started art school together and have remained good buddies since then. We all work in different textile directions and our work because of it's diversity hangs beautifully together.
