The shop presents us with three stages of space.

glass
interior space
back wall

I - I

How to simultaneously use all three has been a challenge for us. Something which is responsive to spatial situation given - a shop, only accessible visually from the outside.

The screen hangs in the central interior space. Translucent it divides the room yet doesn’t block out the back wall. The projector casts our shadows onto it which we inturn cut away allowing a shadow of our original shadow to be cast on the back wall. Our figure is then outlined from outside the glass further playing with traditional hierarchies of spatial organisation inside/outside, front/back, center/periphery.

it is simultaneously something & nothing, an illusion, a representation & reality.
