Blanket Cave or An Idea of Things

Poppy Malik makes subtle notions and sensations- doubts, fears, warmth and anticipation- beautifully tangible in her current show AN IDEA OF THINGS or the way things feel.

When Poppy Malik asked me to be a part of her show I was pretty excited, A fantastic artist to collaborate with, combined with good reason for making more woollen blanket art, i could not resist.

Poppy asked me to make a woollen blanket cave-somewhere to burrow down and nestle in amongst.

And then back into Poppy's hands for final touches and into the Gallery...

Poppy does not shirk at the use of glitter- She relishes it- transforming my dark den into her own brilliant cavern.

AN IDEA OF THINGS or the way things feel by Poppy Malik continues on at CCAS Manuka, Furneaux Street, Canberra until 11th September. 11-5pm.
