This series of recent works reflects the artist’s interest in the shift between still and moving images. A formal concern about the transitory nature of different mediums follows through in to the content of the work itself, as the artist examines the achievements of modern technology (750 years passing) as a means for allowing the dismembering and relocating of a church from its parishioners and historical context.
