A sculptural art installation that merges geometric abstraction with film-scapes, Windows, Hinges, Written-Off Friends is a series of pentagonal-shaped panels covered with 16mm film stills of select horizon lines that are tied together to create the net of fragmented platonic solids.

Like a piano lifted to the top floor window, a simple yet heavy-duty pulley system hoists the platonic solids into mid-air. The solids become precariously suspended in time and space, as do the pictured sites originally rendered in media no longer of this era.

A platform-turned-infinity wall frames and re-emphasizes the representation of the horizon line as something and somewhere static—it exists only as a viewpoint, never as a destination or an endpoint.
