A film projection of an eye operation made in collaboration with an eye surgeon at Moorefields Eye Hospital, London Artist’s statement: ‘The video footage was directed by me, it is not archive but owed by me as in arrangement with eye surgeon David Garty and Moorefields Hospital. The intervention of the tube produces a circular image played onto the central area of the round canvas. (…) The canvas leans against a good white wall. (…)The piece is to be viewed in subdued light.
