In 'HARD YAKKA', Frederick delves into the cultural significance of the flannel shirt, a beloved garment transcending social divides from artists to farmers and labourers, embodying narratives of rural life, manual labour and working class identity.
Long before the rise of hi-vis uniforms, the flannel shirt symbolised rural life, manual work in trades, life outdoors and working-class identity. Delving into the intersection of art and labour, Frederick draws on photographic practices, ceramics and pattern to investigate the sensory qualities of disembodied clothing and the memories they invoke.
