Lighting Projects
Over a week in September 2006 Robert Dingle and Tom Trevatt
traveled around Brighton and the surrounding area with a selection
of high powered halogen lights, a generator and a photographer. They
uncovered disused or unremarked upon sites; sites, as they call
them, of disinterest, and illuminated them with the halogen lights.
Each site was chosen for its liminal or barren qualities. An attempt to
uncover places of social/aesthetic/industrial neglect, but also a way of
examining the political and ethical issues that surround these areas.
The photography in the downstairs gallery was a documentation
of the lighting events.
Lit Sites:
Circus Street Market Roof
Alleyway off Ship Street
Shoreham Harbour
Tunnel under railway in Portslade
Missing House on Motgomery St
Air Vent nr Clayton
Cement Works nr Steyning
Behind New England Road
Rottingdean Cliffs
