The sheets of paper hang in serene and contemplative isolation…corresponding to the way I approach my practice…They act as markers of time and space, within a simple, austere architecture defined by light, space and air.

Further experimentation of projections in different environments are needed.

Asked how I came to this point:

I spend a large amount of time writing notes on ideas, and re-writing each new step I come up with [often with small diagrams-which could perhaps start a new line of work]. These notes help to work out problems, leaving me feeling much clearer afterwards.

A sentence by Fiona Banner, “Essentially I began making and un-making with language and then making and un-making language itself…”

I have often had problems with imagery, and one day, on a train, I realised that the writing could become the pictures.

The journey that takes us to the exhibited artwork is often unseen by the audience, it is an area that I am becoming increasingly interested in, especially after a conversation with a friend about this blog. She told me that she didn’t need to see the other part of the show, in fact, she thought it would have been more interesting if there was no other part. She was more intrigued in the theoretical thought process of a work than a physical one.

The missing sections of the text on the video stand for something missing, something that was once there, something that has happened.

Watching people fill in the gaps with their own images [a formal and thematic mental act] and their own reading of the work sees the video as a catalyst for human communication, and further conversations.
