Along the Taff was created to capture those fleeting encounters with birds along the Taff Trail - the sudden movement between branches, the brief glimpse of a feather, the sense of something passing overhead.

​

Long lengths of repurposed linen and cotton hang from a large fallen twig gathered from the Taff Trail. Each strip carries an abstract interpretation of a bird's feather, either digitally embroidered or screen printed onto the cloth.

​

Interspersed between the textiles are fragments of reclaimed copper, catching the light as the piece moves gently in the air.

​

Suspended from a natural branch, the work is deliberately fluid and changing, shifting with the air and revealing different colours, textures and patterns as it moves.
