The entry zone of the ‘Luminosity’ exhibition. This area consists of 2 wall mounted videos placed opposite a mural of 364 digital prints representing approximately a year of daily activities. In the video works we see coloured cubes (each with a particular significance) being swept by a moving shadow that draws attention to the rotation of the earth and its transit around the sun. A viewer is invited to reflect on the rhythm of this, and the personal and seasonal implications of such journey. Further information re this work may be found on the ‘Cube Diary’ webpage.
