Page 62 part 9


Page 62 is completed with a new section masked by fine vertical stripes and two bands across the page coloured brown, a finishing stroke that somehow draws together all the components of the composition.
Pupils at Easingwold School (York), Fulford School (York), Boroughbridge High and Upton Hall School (Birkenhead) are now working on their own interpretations of p.62. Some of these (if selected) can be viewed on 21 Sept when the exhibition opens. Comments by pupils on the process are welcome.
