Lilian and the Angels (1992)
Northern Adventures, St Pancras Station

Whilst St Pancras Station was shrouded in dust-sheets during renovation, I explored the building with a view to a work using xenon projections onto the sheets.

The many statues of women on the façade were in various stages of decrepitude with missing and disfiguring facial features. With twisted echoes of Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Gray, I decided to photograph these statues alongside local women who were approximately the same age, posing in the same way.

I also used electronic microscope photography of the stone and skin as well as magic lantern imagery from the Museum of Moving Image to complete a work on changing materiality as well as technologies.
