Commissions

Selected editorial:

December saw Heather and Ivan Morison complete one of the commissions for the One Day Sculpture project in New Zealand. Their extraordinary Journée des Barricades was the sixth in the series of 20 commissions, each of which lasts 24 hours. The project, which continues until June, is led by the Litmus Research Initiative at Massey University and involves UK curator Claire Doherty. The project's very short timescale allows for interventions that would not usually receive permission, and to this end the Morisons took the opportunity to create a massive temporary barricade in central Wellington.
