Presented at Artspace, Sydney, 2012

Digital video, PAL, B+W, silent
Duration: Two loops 4mins each
Plasterboard, timber, mdf, acrylic, enamel, perspex, photographs, digital video, data projector.

Loop I: Filmed from a makeshift dolly, the camera is trained close up on the white walls of the built space as it traverses each of its corners; Loop 2: using the same dolly, the camera is now focused front on as it completes the same circuit around the same structure. These loops are projected on the inside of the space giving the impression that the artificial space within a space is under constant unseen scrutiny.
