New essay by Lara Eggleton

As part of our Arts Council England funded Feeding Chair tour, we've partnered with online writing platform Corridor8 to commission 7 new pieces of writing about feeding, parenting and public space.

Our first text, to coincide with the Feeding Chair being shown as part of the Found Cities, Lost Objects exhibition at Leeds Art Gallery, is by Leeds-based writer, Lara Eggleton.
