In an earlier project, I was regularly documenting the campus using my smartphone camera. The degree to which digital images mediated my experience eventually led to my fascination with glitches.
I hope that by displacing glitched digital photos into a material and physical encounter, I can shift them away from their ordinary form, and demarcate the digital optics from the lived, embodied experience of residing in a place in time—specifically, Curtin at night. Suspending the works means that viewing and comprehending them requires physical navigation; while the use of light and chosen materials reference unique architectural features of campus.
