Behind the hap frame in "they are containers of fluidity" is hung a lithography print of a 35mm film photograph. This makes up the performative gesture of the work titled “pegging down their lace”. The lithography print is made of four coloured layers (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) to create a full colour image. It retains the quality of the original film photograph. The white paper is pinned at the four corners with sewing pins into cork behind. The image itself is set amongst the mossy, loch edge in the Kilpatrick hills, just outside Glasgow. The blue ripples of loch Humphrey are just visible on the top edge of the image. Two young, white hands touch the knitting and steel knitting needles – pinning it out on the grass and moss. Small moss sporophytes peek through some holes in the lace. There is a gentle light settled across the photo and small shadows of the knitting needles are cast on the hand closest to the foreground.

Behind the quilt frame, another quilt is hung on the wall. This one is finished. It manipulates a traditional ‘pine tree’ or ‘tree of life’ quilt block into a ‘bird/tree of life’ quilt. Again, the fabric is naturally dyed in community – with yellows, purples, pinks, and white predominantly making up the palette. This quilt is made of lots of carefully sewn triangles and bound at the edges with yellow-buddleia linen.

A small lithograph print of the artist spinning white wool at the wheel. The wooden spinning wheel, found by the artist, is based upon traditional designs of Scottish flax spinning wheels.

Photo Scanned Envelope Printed onto Silk.

from ‘Printed Luxury’

The photocopied image of gloves on silk is a striking image that is reminiscent of the Abstract Expressionism movement. This helps the work to be more contemporary as contributed by how the silk material ripples in the breeze.
