Locust Jones

Behind the scenes

An enthusiastic crowd gathered last week to hear Locust Jones talk about his 100 metre drawing, on exhibition as part of 24 hr News Feed until 1 September.

As well as sharing insights about his process (all of the marks were made using the sharpened point and sides of a short length of bamboo) and subject matter (the guardhouse that currently sits at the centre of the exposed work harks back to a residency he undertook in Seoul, Korea) Locust shared his future plans - a one kilometre work to completed over ten years.

His drawing will be rolled on twice throughout the exhibition period to allow new sections to be seen, and the first adjustment will take place on 29 July - so come on down to C1 before then (and again, after) to make sure you see all there is to see.
