I spent nearly an hour and a half in the Manchester Art Gallery, and particularly in the Grayson and Perry exhibition. I thought his work was very apt for the brief of mapping and the collection of data. The tapestries that he has created mark an event or moment in time that he has captured adequately. The amount of time taken to design and produce these tapestries in tremendously impressive.
Firstly he begins my mapping the image that he has witnessed, and trying to portray the story or a way of life.
The final installations are very large in scale, which gives a great impact on the viewer. I spent over an hour looking at this exhibition, as each strand of thread represented a hidden message, feeling or opinion. I was very inspired by his work.
