• The work reflects the start of a new and important phase in her creative growth
  accompanied by the use of a richer artistic idiom.
  
  This video-sound installation is both mundane and miraculous. It is mundane in terms of the material she uses and where this material comes from. It is miraculous because she artfully transforms these run-of-the-mill elements to create an original and fresh composition. There is value in the commonplace of an image because it acts as a mnemonic device, whereby we are able to unlock the door to our own memories and images based on what the artist give us. The interweaving of sound and visuals leads to a situation where interpretations and memories become jumbled up. These myriad landscapes and soundscapes co-exist independently, yet regularly cross paths. These junctures compel us to create an amalgam of reconfigurable memories, impressions and notes that go to make up countless open-ended and infinite narratives.
  
  Hannah Weinberger refers to her exhibition as a “moment”, a moment whose very existence is intrinsically linked to the place and time in which it comes into being. Her exhibition co-exists with the intrusive light of the sun and with the shadowy light of short winter days. The exhibition is neither artificially darkened during the day nor artificially lit in the evening. When viewed in the daytime, the outlines of the windows cast their shadow on to the projections. In doing so, the exhibition brings the outside in, opening up yet more narrative space.
