Fleece: Flow at Storiel, Bangor

For Storiel, I created a new iteration, distilling the essence of Flow into their gallery space. I used key elements from Oriel Brondanw – the tree stumps and the porcelain boats- and introduced  a new material –  sheep fleeces.  

I chose to use these as both the main focus and as a material that had body, and variety of texture capable of  holding and linking two disparately scaled features – the tree stumps and the tiny porcelain boats – and thus create a new land- and waterscape.

These soft, washed Llyn fleeces become the flow, moving around and through the crossing points of the tree stumps which hold the underlit porcelain vessels.  

The porcelain boats move within the currents and movements created by the fleece.
