L.E.H.M. (installation), 2019

2 overhead projectors, collage printed on transparencies, 6" x 6" mirrors
The second iteration of L.E.H.M. (Le Corbusier Entering Hadrian's Mausoleum, 1965) is a night-time installation. Two overhead projectors face each window, towards the street. One projector holds a transparency photograph of  the Cape Martin, on the French Riviera and the other holds an image of the Bay of Algiers in Algeria. These Mediterranean coasts mark two opposing sides of the French colonial project. Viewers on the street level are invited to take small mirrors, provided by the gallery, to bring certain fragments of the projections into focus as well as join the coasts to form a circle. The gesture is a reminder that history is maintained through an active communal effort of deconstruction and reconstruction.

A publication published in collaboration with Los Angeles Contemporary Archive is available for purchase. For inquiries, contact admin.​
