on reflection
1987
This
body of work from 1988 dealt with my fascination with the recurring
light forms found within my bedroom of the house in which I was
living in at the time.
Working
with the old notion of images as “mirrors” as opposed
to “windows” I wanted to try to reflect an emotional
sparsity and static coldness contrasted with the warmth and fluidity
of the changing light forms which ritually visited the room. I
also wanted to reflect feelings of entrapment and containment
whether physical or emotional.
The
exhibition comprised a sequence of 35 images. The original images
were made on Kodak Kodachrome transparency film and then, to give
the rich warmth that I needed, printed on Cibachrome photographic
paper, which unfortunately is no longer in production.
