Sarah Boulton has made a new exhibition 'Take Away Shadow’ for Calvin Laing’s Shelf Show. Listen


Sarah Boulton has made a new exhibition 'Take Away Shadow’ for Calvin Laing’s Shelf Show - a tiny shelf in Laing's flat in Edinburgh, Scotland.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The shadow of the shelf stretches and moves throughout the day by Calvin’s window. One day, Sarah calls Calvin from Devon to tell him her work for the shelf in Scotland. Calvin installs the piece by telling it to the shelf, where it is on exhibit for a week. ⁣ Working together, Sarah, Calvin and Polly engage with the method of word of mouth; also choosing this informal mode of storytelling to offer the experience of the piece on the shelf. The only need for those who wish to participate is to offer their phone number for a one use contact to receive the work through the receiver. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If you would like to listen to the work, contact Polly Wright on pollyewright@gmail.com who will leave you a voicemail or call you, depending on preference. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If you would like to receive the work live, time slots for phone calls are Saturdays 11am - 12pm or Thursdays, 5-6pm⁣⁣
