This project sits at a crossroads of coincidences: the coming to light of this work marking a version of Britain’s past, a chance to show it again in a big space, and the
immediate upheaval around Britain’s future. This large scale installation around the 240 foot Hastings Embroidery imagined the energy of this as it rushes past us on its way to being something else.
