Introducing Sense of Direction, a colourful collaboration between Georgie and Alex of Alpha60, and multihyphenate artist Brendan Huntley. A simple idea that originated as a solo rug, morphed into a much bigger one. With multiple works spanning across 32 metres.

From the initial conversation back in 2019, the idea for the project grew through countless meetings. The synergy and excitement between Brendan, Alex and Georgie enabled the concept to evolve and the singular rug morphed into an ambitious immersive installation, with accompanying clocks to mirror the rug’s motifs.

With expertise in fabric and textile design and construction, Alpha60 have brought the works of Brendan Huntley to life — in object form. The rugs feature an array of Huntley’s bright and characteristic motifs including faces, celestial beings, clocks, butterflies and eyes. They speak to the artist’s musings on the often temporary nature of personal transformation; how the landscape of individual growth moves in random patterns; and the way that euphoric moments of understanding can be fleeting.
