A copper & bronze box sits at eye level on its pedestal in the hallway outside the Gallery.
The front of the box is a wall of copper blocks & it is through a gap in these blocks that the film “between the cracks…” is viewed..
This copper wall mimics the facade of ‘The Poet’s Dilemma’, a copper & bronze tree which can be seen through the open doorway.
The narrative of the twelve works which make up “..going from nowhere to nowhere…” is a dialogue for two characters
first encountered in “..An Hour Beyond Midnight…” (1992) –The Bird & The Chessplayer (Knight).
Partly in the past, (inside the Improbable Tree guarding the entrance to the Gardenworld)
& partly in the present,amongst the works assembled inside the Gallery,
snatches of this convergence are caught inside the pages of
the catalogue.
