[ upcycled leather cow hide, leather shoe pigment, cotton canvas, cotton thread, leather shoe lace ].


one of the tangible outcomes from my ‘performance of two’ with andy.r at our showcase ‘two’ hosted by at the above. a limited run of ten shoulder bags constructed from a hide of upcycled cow leather i sourced from a local furniture upholsterer.

in the performance the leather was painted in spirit of gutai expression, by hanging a ponytail of cut hair that andy had cut off a girl’s head. he continued to cut, as i used the hair as a means to transport pigment from vessel to leather. tying it to a chain pengulum before dunking it into the pigment and allowing it to swing.


[ wipe with a clean damp sponge if needed ].
