Title	Images of 'The Big O'
Date	[1991]
Description	A black and white contact sheet containing four images of the site-specific installation 'The Big O' at the Riverside Studios, London in 1991. A photographer’s stamp for 'Edward Woodman' features on the reverse of the image. The images show a large angled platform with an 'O' shaped [screen?]. Two circles have been cut out of the screen and a shadow from a pillar bisects the 'O'. Light from a projector housed in the pillar is reflected back on to the 'O' via a large circular mirror (not shown). Includes three close ups of the 'O' and one image of the 'O' and pillar.
Related Material	See 2016.1/B/19 for sketches of 'The Big O'; and 2016.1/E/54/11-16 for colour transparencies of the work.
