Loomeweight Party
Loomeweight is an interdisciplinary durational performance piece created by Patricia Auchterlonie and Hestor Dart. This project began with building an Iron Age style warp-weighted loom. Our loom is made from foraged materials and hung with hagstones (rocks with a single hole worn by the sea). The loom provides the framework for the creation of a tapestry is woven from ‘trash’ or rejected and broken items (e.g. plastic bags, rope, discarded clothing etc). While working, musical materials are passed between two voices, undergoing micro changes as the project unfolds. These improvised changes involve gradual shifts in rhythm, and melody, as well as experimental vocalisations and other non-sung materials.
