A room webbed in shadows, a maze of mirrors, distorted into confusing curves.
Shapes defined by reflections, changing because reflections change, passing from glass to glass, the imprint swimming in the eyes, challenging abstractions blinding until the radiance fades and is erased...
leaving a shimmer of emptiness flickering in a vague gesture of discontent.
(inspired by a piece of work by Yoko Ono on display in the Serpentine Gallery, London. 'Amaze' is the centrepiece of the exhibition, a small labyrinth of perspex and aluminium. Clear walls with a grey square half column in the centre that you can gaze down into at your reflection. The description reminded me of childhood and being lost in a seaside House of Mirrors)
