Production of Eva’s curtain installation for the Weaving Shed entered its final stage of manufacture last week when Eva received the massive 14m long curtain back from the fabric workshop.

Dieter has had the tricky challenge of working out how to carve the modern courier typeface using traditional stonemason’s techniques.
