“Bound,” The Use of Cloth as Interface: Exploring Boundaries and Concepts in Relation to Site and Place’

Bound was a project in which I identified and wrapped, ancient dead trees across the old counties of Wales. The paper is based upon this series of site-specific temporary interventions in the landscape. The paper examines the work and contextualises it against the framework of land and environment artwork. I demonstrate the role of temporary site responsive artwork using cloth and the language of textiles in rural environments in increasing an awareness of natural forms and raising questions of land use, ownership and boundaries.
