Wondrous Waltz

18 April, 2023
A Black model with locs - Faith Makawa - wears orange dungarees and a white t-shirt, which pick up on the orange in her purple and orange hat, and matching pair of mitts. In her hands she holds a record in an orange DECCA sleeve, she is facing towards shelves of music, as if looking to position or place the record somewhere on the shelf

…of a reversible hat and mitts set worked in double-knitting; bearing motifs inspired by the bass lines of two songs; and visibilising creative sonic practices.
