Primary Phases
(2006, two channel video installation, looping, colour, silent)
A looping series of red, green and blue 'wipes' traverse the projected image in vertical and horizontal directions. The loop that each projector shows is a different duration, causing their synchronisation to phase. While the work employs a very formal approach to screen space, resembling the aesthetics of early abstract film, the patterns of the piece directly influence what's outside the frame: the space between and surrounding the colours is made a part of the work; and the reflected light simultaneously affects the look of the entire space.
