The Ghosts of Past Crashes

By Lisa Stansbie 2012

Dimensions
195cm x 850cm

Developed from the Spitfire Beach film, the title is taken from a line in the films narrative. An original archive photograph from the Past Crashes series is enlarged so that it pixelates and Individual pixels have then been shaded in using gold pen defacing and highlighting the figures.
