SUMMARY:Weaving a Seabed
DESCRIPTION:hcmf// has invited multidisciplinary artist Natalie Sharp to host a weekend long\, drop-in event at MakerWorld. \nUsing second-hand and found fabrics and materials only\, Natalie will guide children and their families in creating a giant woven sea blanket as part of an imagined seabed\, complete with a watery soundtrack. A fully immersive\, underwater experience\, right in the centre of Huddersfield! \nOver the course of two days\, participants can drop by and join in with designing part of the sea blanket as well as learning some basic sound editing skills to help create a soundscape to provide the perfect backdrop to the newly created marine environment. \nOpen to children of any age and their accompanying grownups. All materials are provided\, but fabric donations are very welcome. Drop in anytime\, no booking required. \nNatalie Sharp is a disabled artist at the forefront of a movement the Quietus has dubbed New Weird Britain\, Natalie Sharp’s music explores non-conventional settings\, participatory performance and choreographed staging. Anti-framework and anti-expectation\, her work encompasses themes of gender\, sexuality\, pain and the body\, involving audiences in worlds they’ve never before experienced. Self-taught and uncompromisingly DIY\, Sharp’s work constantly integrates performer and listener\, removing the idea of consumption and replacing it with collaboration. Her talents as a musician\, costume designer and make-up artist come together in her performance alias Lone Taxidermist\, a surrealist alter ego she has used in collaborations with Gazelle Twin\, and taken on tour with artists such as Jenny Hval.
