| Date | [1988-1989] |
| Description | Eight unlabelled colour photographs of 'Pump' (1988), 'Equation' (c.1989-90) and 'Core' (c.1989-90) in a studio setting. Each work is a mirrored device made from wood and mirror, though 'Pump' also incorporates halved barbells. Dye's obscured reflection is present in some of the images. The photographs are arranged as follows: 'Pump' [/1-2], 'Core' [/3-5] and 'Equation' [/6-8]. |
| Notes | 'Pump' was first exhibited at the joint exhibition 'The Invisible Man', curated by Kate Love and Kate Smith at Goldsmiths' Gallery, London in 1988. All three works were later exhibited at Dye's one-man show of installation and sculpture at The Showroom, London in 1990.
