A set of 21 hand-painted and collaged 35mm transparencies with accompanying soundtrack, made between 1986-1987. The projection slides were made without a camera and hand 'painted' using inks, coloured gels, wire, text and photocopied elements. The soundtrack was edited on magnetic tape, using found sound and tapes recorded by the artist in London and Morocco. This was originally produced as an analogue 'tape-slide' work and has been transferred to a 13 min video with sound (see below)
