Lindsay Seers seeks to unravel the strange disappearance of a young woman, Christine Parkes, her stepsister. Old letters, her stepsister’s notes and a box of photographs act as her point of departure as she sets out to find the truth, a truth which leads her to tales of diamond smuggling in Western Africa.It has to be this way² is a large architectural structure, inside a video installation is projected onto a circular screen. The apparently unconnected images filling this light pool in the intense darkness are fragmentary, the viewer cannot piece them together to construct a complete sequence of events. This is because Lindsay Seers’ work traces not simply a narrative account emerging from the disappearance of her step sister, but the constantly transforming quality of memory itself.
