This piece is coming along slowly, it is taking me a little longer than expected! I have had a few people come up to me and ask me about it and to say it's looking good. The cleaning ladies in the studio asked my mate about it and when she explained the MWWS they said 'oh yea, she's so right!' so at least it's gaining interest and people are becoming aware of the exploitation and the ignorance of other missing women. Jagjit also said she liked the piece and found it very moving. I understood what she meant by that, because the more I work on this and stand back from it the more of an impact it makes. Others have said they find it rather creepy and it makes them feel uncomfortable. I am glad people are getting feelings and emotions from this piece, as that is what I intended to do. At first I was a bit skeptical about this piece but after gaining more feedback I realise that it is touching people in some way. Now I just need to complete it and put the table inside to see how people engage with it.
