Either Side
Either Side is a trio exhibition by artists Hannah Dinsdale, Millie Laing-Tate and Helen Wilson shown at ArtLacuna Gallery in June 2022. The show exlpores the relationship between textiles, bodily interactions and physical space. It incorporates soft sculpture, interactive sound and video to explore fabric as a membrane between internal and external matter.
Rub up against talkative curtains, squeeze squidgy structures, peek through seams and under hems; absorbed in the fabric of the building.

This is an interactive quilt that plays the sound of a flute (played by my sister). The quilt has sensors sewn inside that are activated by moving or pressing down on certain parts of the quilt. Depending on the movement or pressure, it will activate different notes from the chromatic scale.
Code was created by Alec Gordon
Flute performed by my sister Katie Robson
