The installation Project for a Masquerade (Hiroshima) (2010–11... - Exposition

Collapsing together two geographically disparate spaces—one at the northern most extreme of the British Isles and the other at the far South West—the work will appear as a kind of ‘ship in a bottle’, incongruously reconnecting two remote sites which sh...
