visual traces of movement



Recreating a journey through Sharrow...

This installation communicated the feelings, smells, sights and sounds that were experienced on a journey through Sharrow.
The footsteps were a record of our movement...we tied our feet together whilst moving around to trace each others shadows___Shadows and light are visual traces of movement___Being tied together by string was significant firstly because it was a measure of the distance and space between us and secondly, it restricted our movements and recreated the uncomfortable experience of being approached and followed in public.
