A seven and a half hour film of the beautiful and mesmerising shadow
of a 19th Century chandelier, captures the silhouette as the chandelier gently rotates and the candles burn from beginning to end. The fragile and hypnotic ripples of smoke, reference the passing of time, as well as the tension between presence and absence, light and shadow, material and immaterial.
