The work highlights the unseen ‘support’ usually placed at the back of a photographic frame and used to keep the frame upright.


Here, this support is recorded holographically onto the glass plate it should be supporting. What results is a visual and theoretical ‘support’ with no physical validity or mechanical rigour.


For the piece to ‘stand upright,’ it needs some other mechanical support; in this case, a metal ‘G’ clamp, which is in clear view.


The holographic ‘support’ is only visible when light falls onto the glass plate onto which it has been recorded.


If the light is extinguished, does the support stop supporting?
