Excavation

2012

Susan Collins has made two new works in response to Medieval Harewood at Harewood House, Leeds

Excavation (part I), installed in All Saints Church, is a film sequence, projected on to the floor, showing an archaeologist’s hand gouging earth with a trowel during the excavation of Gawthorpe Hall the original Medieval manor house at Harewood. This work will be on display in the church as part of Medieval Harewood until 30 September 2012

A second work also called Excavation (part 2) is a short moving image photographic ‘portrait’ exploring Medieval Harewood through its landscape.
