SHEILA GAFFNEY - Others

Blenheim Walk

3 March - 1 April

An exhibition of lightboxes and sculpture created while artist in residence with Bradford Museums & Galleries during 2007-8 using the costume collection of Cliffe Castle Museum that archives the types of clothing that ordinary people have worn. Not just fine or expensive costumes, but rather nylon dresses from C7A and the hand-knitted woolly hats that you might have stuffed in the back of your wardrobe. Others refers to the people who might have once worn the items of clothing.
