Brief Encounter is an on-going project exploring the intensification and acceleration of social exchanges and activities across world-time and space-time.

Double Lives: Duple Trials

I will be exhibiting in Double Lives: Duple Trials at the Malt Cross Gallery (12 to 25 Feb). A ‘double life’ conventionally is a life of two identities where one is simultaneously involved in two sets of circumstances and retains the secrecy of one from the other.
