about Tracing Reflection by Tom Jeffreys
2012
Utilising a range of more or less reflective surfaces, the show is a site-specific installation that, in its relative slickness of finish, represents a kind of apotheosis for the Bun House: in particular, an elegant mirrored sculpture on the roof (accessible via a rickety iron ladder). Supported by an array of pulleys attached to the surrounding buildings, the effect is to pull them inwards, to locate the Bun House at the centre of a complex matrix of social, economic and geographic relationships. A centre that is now to be knocked out.
