A Hundred Miles

              ‘A Hundred Miles’ is a kind of diary for me. Like most people, I pick up a lot of paper in my daily life and most of it is thrown away afterwards.  For this installation, I’ve kept the wrapping paper from Christmas and my Birthday, Work rotas, magazines and flyers – mostly Tate ones, so they are a personal reflection of the exhibitions I see daily.

I’ve used baby shoes as for me, they represent early stages of thought and naivety over waste.     shoes williamson 010a

I’m hoping people will stop and think about how much paper they touch and abandon.

  1. Thank you! I’m just in the process of doing an installation for the church near the Williamson, then another for the Chapel gallery in Ormskirk, so quite busy at the moment. I love your photos of the shoes!.
