home presented the fourth in the Space, Action, Location series of performances staged inside the house at 1a Flodden Road.
Drawing Water was proposed as a new piece to sit broadly within lone twin's series The Days of the Sledge Hammer Have Gone. The Sledge Hammer' series comprises various actions and events that attempt a meeting between the liquidity that constitutes 80% of our body's physicality and the network of rivers and streams that give shape to a land's human geography.

This performance traced the journey made by waste water as it left the house and travelled to the nearest sewage treatment works. The piece was materially constructed around notions of walking, rambling and outdoor-pursuits and thus employed rucksacks, flasks, waterproof clothing, maps, compasses, food preserves, walking boots, head-torches, bananas, hunting horns, glow sticks, postcards, hand-warmers, water-carriers, plasters and thick socks. Along with digital cameras and note-pads needed to make the required recordings. Active since 1997 lone twin regularly show performance work nationally and internationally. Held between Gregg Whelan and Gary Winters the collaborative project deals specifically with ideas of place, travel and orientation.
