The work consisted of 75 random Polaroid flash photos exposed in the darkness of the forest then subsequently matted, framed and mounted at eye level in a continuous line around three of the four walls of an all-black room (museum) measuring 12 by 12 feet. For Graham the most interesting aspect of this work was 'the "subjective" experience of the photographer - the flash of the light and the retinal after-image of the site in which he (the viewer) was otherwise lost.', -C MagazineMedium: polaroid, colourMaterial: Support: paperDimensions: Overall (measurements are for 1 photo; frame: 33 x 117 cm): 8.6 x 10.8 cm
