In this large scale video installation a young woman continually jumps for the stars. The camera films her jumping on a trampoline for 24 hours, wearing an array of different outfits. We never see the trampoline which gives the illusion of a woman constantly in mid-air, either falling or rising, but never being allowed to rest. Project Background This project was a Digital Broadway Commission for projection on the exterior of the new Broadway Cinema building, Nottingham for its launch in July 2007. |
