RECORDING PERFORMANCE WOODHOUSE MOOR

Woodhouse Moor, Leeds, 2019

Film documenting a series of recording performances with artist Samra Mayanja, using clay to take impression moulds from the re-situated Victorian statues on Woodhouse Moor, Leeds. These include: Memorial to Queen Victoria, Statue of the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel all re-located from outside the Leeds Town Hall in 1937 to make way for a car park and Henry Rowland Marsden re-located in 1952 from the junction of Merrion Street and Albion Street, which was deemed a hindrance to increased road traffic.
