Locating- Displaying My Work


Although I initially anticipated my piece to be a hanging installation, after a discussion in a tutorial it became apparent that perhaps this was not the most suitable method of displaying my work. From my drawings and sampling there was nothing that was indicating at the piece being a hung piece of work. I decided that perhaps the most suitable method would be to install the piece as a wall based installation, in which there are many possibilities for it to be hung in the building.  Furthermore, I have also moved on from the idea of taking the thread off the surface. Although this was originally an idea, my sampling has proved more successful where I have used a surface that is not always associated with embroidery, such as paper, wood and plastic. I have enjoyed experimenting with these materials and there is a strong connection with the hard and the soft.
Below is a visualisation of how I originally envisaged the piece to look when hung in the atrium.
