Plan B was shown at Tate St Ives in Cornwall in 1999/2000 after two
periods of residency developing ideas and making a series of paperworks working
in the Lifeguards Hut on Porthmeor Beach.
"Magic tricks, changing light, relentless tides, crazy perspectives, optical illusions, and
poetic texts, empty chairs and the 'choice' offered by two canvas paintings clarifies and
confuses everything. However I have to admit this totally expresses the point of the whole
body of work. How do you tell the difference between war and peace? "
