In The Folds, Coram and Foundling Museum
In The Folds was a collaborative project between Coram and The Foundling Museum, as part of the Voices Through Time Programme. Working alongside young people with care experience, inspired by the foundlings’ dormitories and their own bedrooms, the group created a collaborative multi-layered bedspread for the Foundling Hospital bed. Including Aaron Cross, Robyn Hughes, Jake Hartley, Paige Michel and Oliver Jordan, the participants responded to the billet books and the token hidden within its folds, the idea of ‘folding’ dreams and reality as well as bedsheets became key to the group. Exploring textile processes through pattern, drawing and creative writing, each member produced their own sample book. The final bedspread invites interaction, to be opened-up and unfolded to reveal the textile pages from each participant.
