’Corners’, a series of stills and originally exhibited in conjunction with a monitor piece ‘Edge’, is an exploration of boundaries and corners which are placed under close scrutiny revealing the microcosms that occupy us. 

My approach for this work critically draws upon the writing of the French philosopher Gaston Bachelard, and his study of domestic space in ‘The Poetics of Space’ (Beacon paperback 1969), which has provided additional insights and explorative ideas around the home. He explores the importance of corners to the domestic interior and the multiple ways in which we experience the architecture where we dwell.
