RoCA
will present "A Sequence
of Steps", an exhibition of the work of
Elizabeth Knowles, with an opening reception on
Sunday, March 4, 2007 from 1 - 4pm.
A
SEQUENCE OF STEPS
is a site-specific installation located in Gallery
One depicting a spiral shaped photographic journey
based upon the Fibonacci numeric sequence. The
process of creating the spiral consists of my
taking 1 step to the north in the center of the
room and taking 1 photograph from that vantage
point. Then, following the sequence, I take 1
step west and shoot 1 photograph from that viewpoint.
Next, I take 2 steps to the south and shoot 2
photographs, 3 steps to the east and shoot 3 photographs,
5 steps to the north and shoot 5 photographs and
so on.
The
spiral continues into the reception area where
it shifts into another spiral formed from the
Fibonacci sequence. Footprints and shadows are
cut out of this spiral as it migrates over the
walls and through space.
