'Between Us' (2018) Taken from the 'Twenty' project

HD Digital video projection, 2 mins, continuous loop The ‘Twenty’ project (2017-18) serves as a reflection upon the artist’s long term relationship with her partner in the light of his treatment for heart failure Shot a year on from his treatment, ‘Between Us’ (2018) is a celebration of his recovery, whilst recognising his vulnerability, viewed through a female gaze. Based on the poem, ‘Loving You’ by Frances Horovitz, this black and white video acts as an intimate love letter to her partner, comprised of twenty-one photographs to signify their twenty-one years spent together. Indeed, the sense of intimacy and familiarity is implicit – “I could mark you through to the bone”, signalled by the fluidity of the dissolving images - “you know me as fish knows fish in tide”. Informed by Frances Horovitz's poem 'Loving You' soft as silk I tread in this room wary of space that between us flows you know me as fish know fish in tide no more you know I could mark you through to the bone - no touch you'd own so gently I walk around the space enclosing you soft as silk loving you
