On July 15 we invite you to celebrate the closing of our current season Real Lives Half Lives: Fukushima.
Drawing from the O' Furushiki patchwork cloth used by volunteers during Project Fukushima, Arts Catalyst invites members of the local community and beyond to create a cloth for Cromer Street.
Following on from the work created during the first stitching session, this second session will culminate in an unfolding of the cloth into Cromer street and the surrounding area, to honour the collective will and creative, social language that can be drawn from stitching, mending and community activity. Arts Catalyst invites members of different communities around Cromer Street as well as from across London to join us for this stitching session.
‘O-Furoshiki’ is a traditional type of Japanese wrapping cloth created for the annual festival 'Fukushima!', as featured in the film Project Fukushima! Pieces of fabric, donated by people from all over Japan, are sewn together to create a patchwork cover for floors and surfaces affected by radiation. At each festival location, volunteers work together to stitch and cover the floor of each venue with the patchwork cloth. They measure radiation levels to ensure it is safe to carry out the festival.
