'Behind this wall' 248 x 120 cm, C-type print, 2008

'Behind this wall' was created for a group show at 'Platform' gallery, a series of display cabinets in a public pedestrian subway.

'Behind this wall' employs the actual site as the subject for enquiry, documenting the space situated directly behind the display area of Platform; a private underground car park. Multiple photos were digitally combined to mimic the standpoint of the spectator at Platform looking into the display cabinet as if through a window into the car park on the other side of the wall. The printed image represents a physical intervention eliminating the material boundary between two isolated spheres, highlighting the spatial potential of photography.
