Space as defined by two separate systems: 13 seconds of night, 13 seconds of day
2007 | Drawing combined with digital print

A long-exposure photograph at dusk was followed by an equivalent amount of time spent drawing bird flights in daylight from the same window to emphasise the particular qualities of photography versus sight and memory. Shown at 'Mind as Machine', Shrewsbury Museum & Art Gallery (2007) and '[in]visible' Exeter Phoenix (2012).
