Dead networks...

Thinking about empty/non spaces/places, dead and lost functions (telephone exchanges, transient places)... and so straight to the stitch!

I have been using plain, boring fabrics, no identity as a representation of these non places, making little empty sacks or containers, and stitching little networks; organised ordered, bringing a feeling of function...






I want to bring these two themes together, telephone exchanges, lost empty buildings, their function has been minimized (literally, equipment has been made smaller, make way for modern technology!) They sit in solitude, almost unnoticed, connecting people, instantaneoulsy, repetitively, just like non places, (e.g car parks..train stations) waiting around, no identity just for function.

They are more like transient places...lasting only for a short time.

I think more research for T.E's are needed,

Words- connections...transient...repetitive.
