Projector, continuous video loop, mirror, bath of water
Model: Camilla Smith
A video of a young woman, sitting on the floor with her hands cupping her knees, is reflected in a bath of water. The higher the water level, the more distant she appears, as if we are looking down into a well. The small movements the woman makes are barely discernible- she blinks, she tilts her head and adjusts her position. Occasional drips from the tap disrupt the reflection, and as the water comes to rest the ghostly image appears again.
