Tiny Bugs, Mid-Rotation and Loosen were installed in a site-specific and time-specific configuration in St James Hatcham Church. A false ceiling/light box whirls overhead, drumming a rhythm in metal and sand. A stationary mirror/snare drum sits in precariousness on the wall, a lens inviting observation. The gruesome creak of a motor jerks a bass drum/slinky puller upwards and downwards. The ground is smooth yet rough, glossy pool sprinkled with grains of lead filings/sand.
