This work forms part of the installation, Verge, which explores imagined new life emerging from the detritus of the roadside. The empty A frame is entwined with fencing wire and agricultural netting. The pillowcase sandbags bulge with potential. Floral tributes, reminiscent of those glimpsed fleetingly on our major roads, are made from plastic waste found in country lanes. The work is accompanied by a soundscape of field recordings which contextualises the provenance of the materials.
