About Deborah Rundle
Following her residency in 2022, Deborah Rundle will share work created as a result of her research at YSP. The focus of her time in Yorkshire was an investigation into the intriguing history of Ann Ellis, who in 1875 led a group of 9,000 weavers on strike action in Dewsbury, just eight miles from YSP. Rundle visited sites of interest including textile mills and working- class history museums and collections and will exhibit a display of work made in response to her research.
Supported by philanthropists Sigrid and Stephen Kirk, and in partnership with Te Tuhi in Auckland, New Zealand.

Roger Hiorns: Seizure
In 2008 Roger Hiorns transformed an empty council flat in Southwark, London into Seizure, a sparkling blue world of copper sulphate crystals. The work was created using 75,000 litres of liquid copper sulphate, which was pumped into the former dwelling to create a strangely beautiful and somewhat menacing crystalline growth on the walls, floor, ceiling and even the bath of the abandoned flat.
