‘The warp, as a not yet fully materialized tissue, hovers somewhere between matter and thought. To me, its fragility and strength are a metaphor of life.’

It brings to mind the latest scientific concept of string Theory, which suggests that everything is made out of tiny strings vibrating in the fourth dimension. The binary nature of weaving led to the development of computers and the creation of cyberspace a world of immateriality.

This type of exhibit has probably not been seen before in northern England and will provide a stimulating and new experience for visitors.
