Douglas Allsop

10 July – 12 September 2004

Douglas Allsop does not create images but his works do. Using reflective materials they mirror the rooms they are in, the views through windows, and the people looking at them. But these are elusive, ghostly images, caught on a screen of video-tape spanning the room, or registering on a perforated surface so that the ‘frame’ becomes a moving picture. Allsop explores our processes of perception and plays with our quest for stability and meaning.
