Solway Steel and Cyclamen (2019) provides an animated portrait of seven industries across West Cumbria. A mechanical body soars across a hall of delicate pink flowers, providing water; the legs of a machine in a flour production factory shake and dance; the robotic arms at a factory producing New Balance trainers grab and delegate. Fleshy limbs and bodies of IRL humans are animated to keep up with the demand.
