Members of our Yabbers group met with @annique_g at @gasworksartspark today to view “Articulation” which includes Leanne’s handmade paper works, and to show Annique the large sheets of paper we have made her. These roughly match our body dimensions and were created from cotton items of our clothing that had been soaked in various local water sources and put through the beater. There are still ongoing discussions about how these will be further processed and displayed.
