| Description: | A site-specific installation and performance located in the Colyer-Fergusson Hall and an outdoor space. Softly Softly is an installation and a guided experience, making a link between play and meditation or reflection, relating materials and spatial or sensory awareness to audience members. Richard Layzell hosted tours, taking people through a guided participatory performance where adults were invited to welcome their inner children and children were invited to welcome their inner adults. It included sculptural forms, soft toys, paper planes of advanced design, ambient music, coloured lighting and very large balloons. The work explored the architectural subtleties of the new Colyer-Fergusson building at the University of Kent. |
| Additional Information (Publicly available): | An entirely new work based on this site-specific installation, was created in 2016, in stemming from its relocation to the Gorrell Tank Car Park in Whtistable. |
