Assembly of the temporary installation
The computer-cut cardboard pieces arrived at the gallery on 13 January and the last bit of cardboard was glued into place on 24 January. Thank you to Alan Schacher, Denis Beaubois, Ari Ehrlich and Heather Cornish who assisted with the assembly. The following snapshots have been taken by Darren Knight and Neil Berecry.

A new system for supporting and guiding the 'skin' consisted of a series of
vertical poles.
Folded cardboard sheets connect to and reinforce the 'skin'.

| The shapes emerge - we disappear. |

| Sometimes it's a bit tricky to get to where the glue needs the pressure. |

Most sections are finished - the gaping hole is where the walls should connect to the
skylight. A doubled-up roof beam - overlooked when measuring the gallery -
caused trouble. Back to the factory to cut a new patch.
