Turning the Tide Limited Edition Print
"The print of Turning the Tide is an imaginary rendition of the projections of Graeae Theatre Young Company onto the old red columns of Blackfriars Railway Bridge. The four columns are condensed into one image with one of the twelve actors on each. The coloured wave patterns were produced by the Young Company during preparatory workshops for filming the projections, arranging acetate shapes on an overhead projector." Catherine Yass
