Located on the fifth level of Tate Modern's Blavatnik Building, the Tate Exchange space became in recent days a ceramics factory with the installation titled Factory: the Seen and the Unseen created by Clare Twomey. On display from September 28 to October 1, and then from October 5 through October 8, the installation is the second one created as part of the Tate Exchange's initiative which, for 2017 and 2018, will focus on the theme of production. Factory… offers the possibility of interaction with visitors, who are encouraged to create jugs, teapots and flowers. Clare Twomey worked for six months with the Dudson of Stoke-on-Trent company to develop this industrial production line across a 30-meter work space, using eight tons of clay, a wall of drying racks, and over 2,000 fired clay objects. During its first week, Factory encourages visitors to enter the space and learn to work with clay and exchange the products produced. On the second week, the production line will stop and visitors will be invited to immerse themselves into the sound landscape of the Factory and to participate in a production chain to discuss the way in which communities are built through collective work. A lace panel created by Clare Twomey will be installed in the Factory entrance to embody the relationship between human and machine innovation. About Tate Exchange and its Production Project: Tate Exchange invites the public to try ideas and explore new perspectives, illuminating the value of art on society. In "Tate Exchange: Production," from September 2017 to January 2018, artists' projects will explore the role of the museum in the production from several points of view. From January to May of 2018, 62 organizations associated with Tate Modern and 24 at Tate Liverpool will work with the visiting public in the galleries to continue pursuing the theme. During its inaugural year, more than 230,000 people participated in the activities organized by Tate Exchange at Tate Modern and Tate Liverpool. All activities are free.
