Knathorn series

1978-85
Photography

The project began in the 1970s whilst living in the Devon countryside, responding to the sculptural qualities of a found wooden object and the sculptural possibilities of the photographic image. Two exhibition installations (Bristol 1984), Tales Gates and Plank Points, were completed in the 1980s using some grant funding for the construction of the frames and mounting surfaces. In Tales Gates, three frames are hinged to the wall and are able to be moved by the viewer. In a later version shown at Experimenta (Melbourne 1989) a video component was placed facing the panels.
