Even though the Shy (dissolution + exchange) project is expected to take up to two years to complete, the in-progress work was shown at PICA (until 20 October 2012). Here are some quick shots of the installation (hand held, no lighting).
The installation almost finished — the blank square is where the animation is visible. The wallk work is 2.67 x 1.47 m. The first image is in the bottom left hand corner, running left to right to the tip right hand corner. As photocopies arrive the place-holder image is replaced. At the moment the first 9 photocopies have arrived.
