The wheeled table sits marooned in centre of the artist’s studio, where it is littered with collections and piles of images. An ensemble of damaged roses and prophylactics is assembled on a polyethylene board at one end of the table. With a small hiss the board rises vertically towards the light, until the artist is satisfied. She photographs the still life. Later she clears the glossy surface and sets up the props for a small movie. The camera sits on the table, recording her hand movements. At night the artist replaces the still life with a digital projector. She raises the acrylic screen at the end of the table and starts the projection, which flickers on the screen at the opposite end.

 

The kitchen trolley wheels into place, dividing the food preparation area from the dining table. A long acrylic panel is raised, which screens the work top from the group sitting around the table. The shiny work top is covered with food in bowls and serving dishes, ready to be served. Half way through the meal, the artist brushes the chopping board clean of breadcrumbs, and places her laptop on it. She presses a button and the board rises until everyone at the table can see the screen, which holds images of her new digitally altered still lifes. Later, the laptop is replaced with a slide projector, and the table is swivelled around until the projected images hit the nearby walls
