Make your own multi-sensory journey through Stretch, an interactive installation by Sophia Clist with Nick Burge.
A wall made of hundreds of strands of fine shirring elastic under tension, stretching across a space, a sound sculpture, a blank canvas, minimalist and symbolic in appearance. Stretch's many miles of elastic create a permeable threshold or boundary, embracing the architecture of the space it occupies.
The sculpture invites interaction, quietly provoking the viewer into physical engagement, to manipulate it, and to discover its potential to transform and to be transformed.
Stretch is an evolving artwork conceived and designed by sculptor Sophia Clist and developed in collaboration with sound designer Nick Burge. They are joined by performer Jane Mason and musician Theo Jackson Clist.
Stretch is a durational work available to explore between 10am and 5pm with performance improvisations at:
– 10 till 10.45am
– 12 till 12.45pm
– 3 till 3.45pm
Access information
Friday 31 October from 3 till 5pm, there is a workshop for SEND individuals and families only.
Suitability guidance:
Suitable for all ages, children must be accompanied by an adult.
