Above: 'Care and Confusion' a magical push along hurdy gurdy of an instrument, you can see it being pushed along here.
Below: is a picture of Lucy Mulholland's graduate show at ECA including the 'Cats Ladder', which I had thought was a massive marble run, a cat run is even better! "Care and Confusion translates a gesture made by my cat as he ran across the piano, into a physical object. Exploring the process of translation itself and how elements inevitably are changed or lost, both literally and it also caused by a fundamental misinterpretation of his action and my understanding of it. The choice to make an integrated music box and wheelbarrow was influenced by Yi-Fu Tuan’s book Dominance and Affection. Tuan explains the conceptual links between pet ownership and tending to a garden, which is a dichotomy of both care and control.." Lucy Mulholland
"Cat Ladder, (above) is a site specific sculpture made in response to the architecture of ‘human spaaaaaace,’ and is a nod to the changes needed to adapt these spaces in order to facilitate their use by other species." Lucy Mulholland
