Les Brigittines

Partial vacuum is an installation that places seven found photographs next to seven radiometers or light mills. As a viewer you see an image, but no vanishing point or centre of attention. It is an artefact in constant movement, as are our memories: fleeting, decelerating, gone. Glass, acrylic resin and mica stone are the primary materials of the installation. Image and object together form a dedicated milieu in which the viewer is invited to imagine and wander.
