Homage

to the the white road,

the long track, those paths that

countless generations of humans

have walked across the earth and are still

walking as they flee the effects of climate change and war.

AMBIT

Commissioned for the Museum of Object Research exhibition, Neither Use Nor Ornament (NUNO) at OVADA, Oxford.

This project was a combination of walking, making and photography.

I made an object of no use,

using fine sock yarn and 3mm needles,

knitting every mile that lay between myself

and the other neurodivergent NUNO artists.

An

inch

of knitting

equalled 1 mile.

488 miles separated us.

The central 6 stitches represented

the artists, looping together in a cable pattern.

Several

long distance

walks were undertaken

in the spirit of pilgrimage,

locating myself in the landscape, artistically and spiritually.

Lastly, I walked the 58 miles from my (then) home

in Birmingham, to OVADA in Oxford,

carrying the completed object 

to the exhibition

venue.
