Yesterday was a good day, we visited the Dewsbury Museum to look at the rooms once again and discuss on site possible new ideas for placement of our work and just a useful exercise for us all.
The sun was shining, the daffodils and hyacinths scented the air and we were all in a good mood. I tried to imagine the night of our private view when guests will wonder around the house looking at our work and sipping their drinks. The house although now a museum has still retained it's beautiful interior with the original plasterwork and fireplaces which definitely add to it's charm and feeling of intimacy.
Today, Tuesday was really busy; I plan to cut my pit props to fit up against the wall which I know will be tricky to do. It was! You can see from the image that it is holding up a piece of plaster which is in front of a wood wedge.
Steve was a great help...pit props are heavy plus it was difficult due to the other students coming in and out. It really was trial and error. I am confident the result will 'have 'something, my interpretation of coal mining and the wealth it brought to the area. A prop!
