Visit to the IKON gallery

Taking a trip to the Ikon gallery was quite beneficial, looking at work like Ron Terada, Shuruq Harb and more so Susan Collis who displayed a range of contextual work as you can see...



















Here is photographs i took examining the effectively crafted ladders, where she has encrusted the material, mother of pearl. An expensive specimen engraved into the ladders i really liked, giving the impression of any regular ladders which people would mistake for a working facility used for painting etc.




















I also liked this piece of fabric which she has designed, hand rendered to represent a throw-over in a decorating environment also, which at a distance, looks like paint.
However the painted marks were actually hand stitched to build up this intricate design.
