Welsh artist Shani Rhys James has placed one of her Automaton works within the dramatic setting of the shuttered concrete tube in MOSTYN http://www.mostyn.org/ The tapping mechanical action of the automaton resonates within the space and with the other works on display as part of the Women Art Society II exhibition. At the launch of LLAWN03, the Spanish dance duo Guillermo Weickert and Maria Cabeza de Vaca created an improvised dance response which explored the connections between the stark architecture and the sharp, haunting repetitive actions of the solitary automaton.
