| Description: | 'Fray' is a time-based installation. A tall, monolithic wardrobe stands in the centre of a dimly lit space: its doors sealed shut, its contents inaccessible when scrutinized from the front. To the rear, a single sheet of clear perspex replaces the structure's fourth wall to reveal the back of a contemporary British army uniform hanging from a rail and illuminated by a small light bulb. Encased within and hidden from sight, an infestation of moth eggs are left to incubate inside the garment's breast pocket. As the eggs hatch, the larvae consume the woolen uniform, destroying its fabric as they pupate and complete the animals' life cycle. |
