The Projection Room
These works are based on the interiors and exteriors of two particular theatres; The Four Star, one of the oldest (and still running) in San Francisco, and The Irving. The images are the result of hand-cut stencils. The processes of looking through the layers, drawing outlines and shapes over and over, is a type of physical tracing of memory and histories.
The interior-based images of Irving Theatre were Exhibited at Chambers Art Gallery, Christchurch; July-August 2019, The Four Star exterior images were exhibited in The Welder space, 2020
