/ Pigment print on Hahnemühle German Etching 310gsm 
150 x 225mm
Edition of 100, 5 prints in each

A series of chandeliers left hanging in an empty house after moving out.

  1. Sitting for long enough to see in low light. Projections and shadows, finding perspective with old tools and graphite stained hands.
  2. Cut ribbons of stone porticos, bellowed into thread. The mist from late night conversations, ruins on the porch.
  3. Caves with crevices for windows, single perspectives and routine. Voids in the floor, levels rising and repeating. Escape stairs and signs of life.
  4. Listening to the distance and tapping the pedals to sustain being alone. There are queues of repetition from sunrise, a spotlight always.
  5. Watching old movies from rail cars and waiting rooms. Low lights to be put out, sleep to be had. Pushing the floor so hard to pile drive footings, escape.
