Islington Mill: Sally Titterington

Sally Titterington: Biography

Sally Titterington is Urbanpicnic The Creative Bureaux®which she established in 2006, as a platform to play and invent from.

Today, Sally T works between her studios in London and Manchester. She loves it in the cotton mill and recalls the time when Manchester was described as 'The Workshop of the World'. It still is for her as she scrambles experience, memory and dreams into analogue and digital communications to create film projections, sound scapes, light boxes, paintings, prints, contextual graphics and site specific installation for public spaces, empty interiors and exteriors, in urban and natural settings.

Kinetic Wallpaper' is a phrase Sally T uses to describe her unique edits, creating projections that are like wallpaper. Just as Erik Satie likened his music to 'Furniture', not to be listened to like an orchestra, she calls her moving images 'Kinetic Wallpaper' as the work is to be viewed as wallpaper and not as traditional cinema film. The pieces are contemplative, random and open to interpretation. 'Kinetic Wallpaper' is a 'space filler'.
