The exhibition ‘Double Signature ‘ opened mid-February displaying the work of four collaborative teams, my prototype of a lakeside pavilion is a ‘not to scale’ model of a structure that conveys an approach to the site, rather than defines a certain building, a model that oscillates between structure and proposed walkway. Laura’s textile prints and cushions approach the imagined pavilion from a different angle, dealing solely and in detail with the interior patterns/ finishes and internal feel of a building that will never be built or fully designed (e.g. it can only be built by the viewers imagination).

Opening the show whilst there was still plenty of snow on the ground meant it was an interesting and determined crowd that gathered in Fermyn Woods a gallery in the countryside near Corby, they came by car, on foot or by horse, a motley crew of surprisingly interested people, in rain coats wellies, some camouflage jackets and with children in tow. A different demographic to a urban art space that reminds you that contemporary art culture isn’t solely the preserve of the urban trendy.
