What's moving, though? The Spiders' legs or yours' when they start moving? 🤔😜

I think I would stay very still and hope that she either doesn’t see me or has more succulent prey on offer. I doubt I could outrun her.

Could be its a He, actually! The males mainly come indoors. Not sure about not seeing you, as they do have like one eye for each leg? 🕷️
You mix that up with this movie! 😂

No, she’s carrying eggs. And she’s named Mamain.

You know her well! 😜XX

Cool will do.

Just saying though, think there's a spider on your shoulder. Just a little one.

Is the crack still there?

matthewhodson.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you’re referring to the one on the floor of the Hall… no. 😂

You had to bo there didn't you 🤣🤣

It's one of my favourite spaces in London. Will absolutely go and see the quilt.

Also, don't want to worry you, but there seems to be a spider behind you.

I haven't been, but turbine halls were always the most civilised places in conventional power stations. They normally had lots of windows, lovely tiled floors, whimsically painted "trains", and were remarkably clean. I hope this is reflected in the Tate.

IT'S BEHIND YOU!!!

Oh my - that’s still so heartbreaking to see … all those lovely men who never got to live their fullest xx
