#TheRedBags – #SculpturalDrawing art installation at YORK ART GALLERY .Each piece is hand stiched and crafted from Repurposed lightweight waterproof canvas, bamboo, bullet holes This, the 3rd incarnation of #TheRedBags and is an amazing example of process – with sun bleached patches and bits of debris marking the time these bags have journeyed, the fragility of materials , the endurance and strength through wind and storms, including the occasional casualties.
Thank you to the wonderful visitors of #York that stopped and engaged, for the conversations about challenging issues of migration, mass movement and climate change. It has also been a pleasure watching folk take the time to walk the Red Bags and immerse themselves in the rustling sounds, the shadows and the pops of light through the bullet holes – hope. This Installation is part of the AESTHETICA ART PRIZE 2023 exhibition, showcasing 21 shortlisted artists and will be on show until 4 June. FREE ENTRY
