I have laid out the images for the months of August 08 and September 08, the first two months in which I consistently recorded this daily discreet art performance and practice. Dates will be embossed on each piece of paper; some pieces will be completely blank following the layout of the western calendar system. The pieces are intended to be sewn together in the fashion of a patchwork quilt.
The images record whether the washing was dried inside or outside according to the weather and seasonal changes. The number of wet days in August are a strong reminder of the climat change which is affecting us globally and locally.
August 08
September 08
I would love at this stage for my fellow blog artist to provide some feedback about the presentation of this work in progress.

Oh, lovely.
I think they look great, but how are you going to put them together? Pins? Thread? Really tiny clothes pins? I like the slight gaps between the papers - could you sew them onto a backing canvas? This is a totally brilliant project. It is quiet and also heroic and a work of very deep sensitivity. I hope it is highly appreciated when it is finally hung. Please think about properly publicising this work - photos and reviews in AN and on online artist's sites. Also recommend that you send some images and text to FibreArts and Selvedge magazines.
