Finally, be sure to check out Peak’s presentation of Gareth Lichty’s massive macramé in the pit at Morrow Street before it is heaved away by many arms (or a crane perhaps?). The woven hose that is Range, looks like rolling hills from a distance and the shed skin of a giant snake up close. As I write this, it’s pouring rain outside and I bet this monstrosity (in a good way) is even better all slick and wet. It’s accompanied by another woven rubber labour of love, this one looking like a patch of glistening water snatched from a virtual world of computer graphics made real. I resisted the urge to lie down and be massaged by its coils, but I’m tempted to go back and try.
