some pics taken on cameraphone of rachel’s installation - click on the small images to view a larger pic. it’s set out in two disused cattle stalls and explores themes of memory and tears - hence the salt in the sack and the bags of water (which look like huge icecubes) suspended in nets. the second stall has sillhouettes made from a translucent material sewn into a thin felt(?) - very effective. it had a similar look to when clear oil is spilt onto paper.

the images behind the suspended sack are a mix of video and stills with overlayed type. rachel said that the type was the part she was least happy with and that the piece is a work in progress, but i think the type is quite sensitively done. the layering of multiple images and simple sans serif type reminded me of the kind of visuals i helped create when i was part of host which at times was a cross between installation and non-linear act of worship.
