Overhead Projection, 2006
Incandescent light bulb on overhead projector
The image of a clear glass bulb is thrown up high up onto the top of the wall where it touches the ceiling. The projected image of the bulb thus gives the illusion of hanging from the ceiling to illuminate the room.
Half Full, 1999
C-print, mounted on Dibond
A glass halfway filled with water could also be halfway emptied of it. Only the title of the work gives an indicator to which one it is, referring to the subjective outlook of the person assessing it.
Saw, 2015
Blade, acrylic, chalk marker
A large serrated saw blade appears to stick out from the floor, ostensibly in the process of cutting a large circular hole into the ground. The work dramatically changes the way we experience the room, undermining the trust in the permanence of the ground on which we stand.
