Screen prints of net curtains made to look like the elegant etched glass panes, were placed in the windows of three of Newcastle’s city centre pubs, bringing a touch if domestic intimacy and privacy, into an otherwise public and traditionally male domain. The work becomes a discreet part of the building, while remaining at odds with the space.
