‘Strokes’… Theresa Roxburgh

mixed dog hair @t_roxburgh

Together, we brush as an act out of love;
you hold one end whilst i hold the other.
A ceremony, a ritual, an event for the day
to be done for hours until you no longer wish to play.

Pat pat pat, gnashes out
and slobber on slow decline.
All these strokes you deserve;
for simply being mine.
Golden locks, silky curls,
in such unity they twirl.
SUCH a good boy and of course, a good girl !!

An admiration of our love language to man’s best friend, through the act of a brush stroke.

Dog hair used…
Afghan Hound, Borzoi, Cockapoo, Cocker Spaniel, Chow Chow, Golden Retriever, Huskey, Newfoundland-Landseer, Pomeranian, Pyranese Mountain Dog, Samoyed

Tom Woodroffe…

Many thanks to Tom Woodroffe @tomwoodroffe
for his work.

9.2.26-22.2.26 Tom will change the installation midpoint

Tom Woodroffe’s photography is rooted in the quiet dramas of everyday life—fleeting gestures, awkward pauses, and gentle absurdities that often go unnoticed.

His practice sits between diary and fiction, drawing from real moments while embracing autofiction. Blending fact and fabrication, his images question how memory is shaped, edited, and retold.

The works on display at window135 continue this exploration, focusing on emotionally ambiguous spaces and encounters—tenderness edged with tension, humour tinged with melancholy. Reframing the archive by playing with presentation, the images are given a new life in conversation with each other.

week 2…

‘It’s a girl! Martin Gruenanger @spacegrouparchitects

see the video here…https://www.instagram.com/p/DT2PrkFCK2O/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

The installation It’s a girl! is a stark and sorrowful critique of the misogyny and systemic violence
that women and girls are born into across the world.

It is a father’s lament, a desperate articulation
of the hostile environment my own daughters, and all girls, inherit from the moment of their birth.

The traditional congratulatory card, so full of pink, hope, and societal celebration, is placed next to a
pink-coated infant skull—a morbid memento mori—to violently juxtapose promise against peril.

The fluttering of the pink feathers represents the fleeting fragility of innocence and life in the face of
relentless, gendered violence.

This work is a refusal to normalize the relentless tide of femicide and oppression.
The pink coating is an attempt to reclaim a colour that is weaponized against women from birth, demanding that we see the brutal reality hidden beneath the saccharine façade of gender stereotypes…..’

Many thanks to Martin for the work & the install 💓
