Overlie Film piece (a response to The West Yorkshire Hoard)  June 2019

Treatment: Disarray

Outline, Material, Detail  – Overlie, questions the different parts of the 6 gold and 1 lead object/s that make up this hoard; by viewing these parts separately, can the perceived value of these objects change?  Does the viewer have a preference to just part of the object? The order and positioning of the objects denotes the random order in which the objects were found; the chance finding, and sequencing of these hoarded objects is completely detached to the value or differing age of these objects.
