| Stagefright Instillation by Suspect Culture in connection with RSAMD TPA students Calum Willoughby, Kirsty Campbell and Louise Marr.
| | #REDIRECT [[CCA Installation]] |
| | |
| | |
| == The Project ==
| |
| We were asked to be involved with Suspect Cultures Stagefright Instillation at The Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA) in Glasgow. This installation involved an element of suspending between 20 - 30 Silver Birch trees (sourced from a sustainable forest) above the cafe area in the CCA. The cafe has no structure above it but is an open space climbing 2 levels to a glass roof. The cafe is in fact located between the two buildings that have been linked to make the CCA.

| |
| | |
| We were restricted as to the infrastructure we could build because we could not damage or mark the buildings in any way. Any structure had to be completely self supporting in that respect.
