Work based on architectural forms from early 20th Century cinema frontages and family tombs of that era. The starting point was Paul Virilio's comparison of the necropolis to early cinemas in his writing 'War & Cinema". Initially constructed for the stairway landing area at the Town Hall Galleries, Ipswich.
