In these works from thirty years ago, the stage illusion is re-imagined as a modern death ritual. Miniature models of magician’s furniture, gold-leafed and hollow, become sarcophagi for a theatrical afterlife, created for mass consumption. Beside them, large-scale ply ‘drawings’ enveloped in glossy darkness use staged projections of light to echo the assistant’s own visual experience. It is an exploration of the space between the performance of magic and the reality of the vessel.
