⁓ in the fields have reinvented the 16th century bookwheel of Agostino Ramelli as a hands-on wheel made of steel, back projection and driftwood The work draws attention to the growing problem of oceanic plastic pollution.
Dance loops, choreographed and performed by Sue Hawksley and Tony Mills, are projected within the wheel. The choreography is inspired by photographs documenting the impact of plastic pollution, and by the poems of Ken Cockburn which are also recited as audio loops in the wheel.
Exhibited at ⁓ in the fields solo exhibition at Inspace, Edinburgh - Edinburgh International Art Festival, 2012
