Opening of newly commissioned permanent drawing installation (internal doors) at the Side Cafe (quayside).
The work takes as its reference; the polyptych panels of 15th century altarpieces, The Japanese Tea-Ceremony, sumi-e and manuscript culture. The piece also incorporates the 3,000-Year-old technique of Marouflage. The panels on the door contain symbolic narrative scenes illustrating the cross cultural story of Tea, unified by an architectural and decorative system of framing.
