9. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Li, curator, International Art, Tate Modern:
"Mire started having this image of being inside a large animal’s body with its inner linings shedding skins over time, which led her to the decision of filling the whole space with fabric sculptures she called ‘skins’. They will be actually installed in multiple stages throughout the show, culminating in March when it becomes the most full."
10. Various of exhibits
11. Various of ‘skins’ hanging up
12. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Li, curator, International Art, Tate Modern:
"There are two kinds of movements in production work that will happen throughout the show. Every two weeks, once the skins are fully wetted and ready to go, there will be technicians that come onsite at an unannounced hour to take those skins and those gantries out of this case to the back of the space and then hang those skins on drying section and then swap with a new batch of unwetted skins that are waiting in the back."

16. SOUNDBITE (English) Alvin Li, curator, International Art, Tate Modern:
"As you can see with this commission, she’s done some absolutely wild architectural intervention. She took down the cladding of the bridge. So when you walk into the turbine hall at the main entrance, you actually see through the guts of the industrial building all the way into the east, end up the turbine hall."

20. SOUNDBITE (English) Tabish Khan, art critic:
"So, I think there’s a high expectation and not for all artists to live up to in the Turbine Hall installation. This one, I think, really grabs you. There’s something very visceral and bodily about it. You see the dripping water, the hanging fabrics. It feels like something out of a horror movie, maybe reference to childbirth. Reference to the fashion industry. And I think that’s what’s great about in that you get an immediate visual hit, but you can spend a lot more time with it and then get a lot more from it once you understand where the artist is coming from."

24. SOUNDBITE (English) Tabish Khan, art critic:
"I think the sound element of this installation really adds something. The little dripping water that you can hear, it almost feels like it’s raining inside. And I think that draws you in as you come down the Turbine Hall in the grand entrance of the Tate Modern. So I think that will pull people in and then they’ll spend a lot more time looking at all the hanging fabrics throughout."
