Cable ties and telephone wire

Local artist Lucy Irvine meets up with visiting South African telephone wire weaver Hlengiwe Dube. They are comparing works at the Common Goods media launch, officiated by Sports Minister Justin Madden. Lucy works with what she can find in hardware stores, particularly cable ties. Hlengiwe's telephone wire is now especially made for craftspeople in South Africa -- it has proven such a popular medium. What will come of her work in Geelong?
