We asked Haruka Hashiguchi to tell us more about her work Sunlight Tracing which features in her Master of Fine Art Degree Show Show at Chelsea College of Art.
'I traced the sunlight coming through the window in the space for 2 weeks by tracking the movement and stitching over it. I chose a part of the window’s shadow on the floor as a mark at the beginning of each day, so that I could track the movement of sunlight throughout the day and I could find it again even after clouds passed and hid the sun. The pattern of stitching was dependent on the clouds and the brightness of the sunlight of the day. I'm calling this piece "Sunlight Tracing". The materials I used are cotton cloth, cotton and silk thread and ink ( for the time stamp).'
