Liquid Notation

By  Claire Barber 2024

I came across a weave notation book created as a student, that had become water-damaged. The dampness on the weave notation informed a new abstract(ed) visual form stimulated by the intersection of the fragile memory of the original weave notation, the technique of weave, and the damaged artefact.
