Preparing for Spread

Barbara, Hilary and I (KA&A) have started an ongoing dialogue which will inform our work for Spread, there is always that sense of excitement and trepidation when starting another process - how will it pan out - will we be able to get it together - how will we communicate - how do we make room for each other - how do we allow the process to ebb and flow but not get stuck or go in directions we don't want to go in. We meet at Arts Depot next week to work out how things will come together, no firm ideas yet just allowing ourselves to dream, but I am interested in working with knitting and knitting nancies, you know those things that make long sausages in wool, that can go on forever.

Starting to think a lot about craft and its relevance for time based work and durational performance, knitting seems to be an ideal form of working with time, memory and communal activities
