In a world of shadows

In a world of shadows

Convergence & Space is still having an impact on my work…the shadows we discovered in the Goods Shed, their movement and the way they layer up…intensifying the experience of their existence. I tried to gather information about shadows and was surprised to discover how much negative feelings are associated with them…a few years ago I took the photo of the shadow below, cast/ projected into a small pitch-black space through a rusty door that had some letters cut into it. The shadows were animated by sunlight outside and the movement of trees bursting with summer foliage. How can I capture movement in shadow, animate the layers…?
