| Description | Five untitled black and white photographs of 'Cancelled Location' (1970) in a studio setting. The first image shows the work in its entirety: a diagonal sectional of mirror taped to a wall above an incomplete mirror on the floor; a photograph positioned under a large sheet of glass is placed some distance away. The remaining images show the reflections formed when the diagonal section of mirror is reflected in the incomplete mirror on the floor. Only one photograph shows a decipherable reflection: an image of an 'X' formed when viewed from a specific point in the room. A copy of this photograph is located underneath the large sheet of glass. However, the spectator is prevented from ever forming this image themselves as access to the location is impeded by the glass. The final three images show the reflections in the incomplete mirror when viewed from the available positions by the side of the glass. Duplicate images of the work were mounted on a presentation board (see 2016.1/G/1/5). |
