TROUSER TOWN

In 2017 the theme for the Hebden Bridge Arts Festival focussed on the idea of the industrial manufacturing history of the town. It was known as the Trouser Town because of its reputation for making trousers usually in cord or moleskin. Kate often shows work in the festival with photographers such as Claire McNamee, Simon Ford or Charlie Meecham. In 2017 she had the idea that because you could see the construction of clothing much better on the inside she would ask people to model their trousers inside-out. It was a silly idea, much too silly to even mention. However the notion got around and soon lots of people volunteered to model for Kate. Here are just a few images.

The photographs were exhibited at the launch of Foldworks: www.foldworks.org
