"Inspired by a chapter in Dick Hebdige’s ‘Hiding in the Light’ I bought a motorcycle with the intention to use it in my Fine Art degree show this year. As I was interested in gender I ended up wrapping this Chinese 125 in brightly coloured wool and knitted wool. Before this I had never picked up a set of knitting needles and it has been challenging learning how to knit over the last 4 months!
It has taken 3 months in total to cover - with the odd experienced knitters helping along the way! The main concept is about stereotypes: a female intervention on a masculine icon."
