RECORDING PERFORMANCE I, II, III, IIII - PARALLEL ARCHITECTURES IIIII
Woodhouse Moor
2019
Film documenting recording performances using clay to take impression moulds from the re-situated 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.
Work performed with artist Samra Mayanja.
