It’s coming up to a year since @53two opened their doors. I was given the opportunity to create an installation for them in the floor of the new theatre. After researching the space I found that the cotton used to be transported down the canal and then taken off the boats

The comber...
This enhances the developing yarn, removing short fibres and impurities from the sliver. By eliminating the short fibres and neps it improves the developing yarn’s evenness, strength, smoothness and overall visual appearance.

Over the past 25 years along with the other Australian farms, our cotton supplier has been able to half the amount of water needed to grow a bale of cotton- which contrary to popular belief is NOT a thirsty crop.

The Autoconer winds the yarns from cops on to cones, analysing the yarn, detecting any faults. The machine cuts out any faults and invisibly splices the yarn back together. It winds at speeds of up to 1,500 metres per min, using 20% less energy than other winders.

Sliver is the result of the carding and combing in which our extra long staple cotton fibres are interlocked to create these long rope like strands...
