Shimmer
1997
From 'Lifting Light', a solo exhibition at the Pier Art Centre, Stromness, Orkney.
The installation involved light, water, cast concrete and the movement of people in space. A raised timber floor was installed over the existing floor, at one end a concrete form cast from layers of cloth, next to it a galvanised steel tank filled with water. A light was focused on the surface of the water, and as the viewer walked in the space, their movement caused the reflected light to cast a shimmer on the wall, echoing the form of the cast sculpture.
