'Dangle' - June 2023 in Harris

Dangle

To hang loosely or cause something to hang

10 hand woven Harris wool weavings, peat, plaster, Harris wool and 10 pieces of gneiss gathered from the river bed were placed in situ on a slab of gneiss on the Old Road in Finsbay. Left to dangle for 7 days in all Harris weathers - sun, wind and rain. 
Left to change shape, colour and texture, to sway and rotate, to get entangled with each other, to change position. Left to dangle, drip, droop, fall, drape, sag, suspend. Once in place, the installation did it's own thing for 7 days without any interference from me.
