Cube featuring a embroidered sailing vessel

Cube covered in jute scrim with embroidered sailing vessel and "9,000 MILES" written on a label. Green twine traces the route from Dundee to the BAY OF BENGAL, three labels have handwritten lists of names. Created as part of the “Juteopolis SSA Collaborative Sculpture Annual Exhibition 2009". Here members of the Society of Scottish Artists embellished 10cm x 10cm wooden cubes, taking jute as their subject matter. These cubes were then laid out on the floor in the shape of a lade to create a large collaborative floor sculpture, exhibited at the Vision Building, Dundee. In 2010 these cubes were also exhibited in the machine hall at Verdant Works.
