Commissioned by Kettle's Yard as part of their exhibition Actions to mark the opening of the new Kettle’s Yard building. Featuring thirty-eight artists from around the world, Actions takes its subtitle – “The image of the world can be different” – from a letter exchange between artist Nuam Gabo and Herbert Read, “flooded formlessly and indiscriminately by the flow of sound... lines meeting and crossed, radiating from certain points, planes intersecting”.
