Falling Down/Building Up Testing Ground Residency January 2015 - February 2015
Our imagination connects the past to the present and the present to the future. Whilst wandering about the Testing Ground site I kept on asking myself, 'What was here before on this is old land by the river, what was here before?’ Using digital images from a range of sources I wanted to create a work that merges and blends elements of the past with an interpretation of the present. An abundance of natural light is an overwhelming feature of the Testing Ground site. Digital prints printed on semi transparent trace placed in the window of the Testing Ground exhibition space was my attempt to acknowledge that light and to reflect upon the recent architectural past of the site. Falling Down, Building Up was acquired by Testing Ground for their collection.
