The Connaught Hotel

The Moon Terrace

This installation is an evocation of landscape and process. The serpentine water, constructed by Andrew Ewing has a black granite floor through which are pieced hundreds of optic fibres which light up after dusk. A disc of light is projected onto the water and is reflected on the limestone wall at the end of the garden. This picks up every minute disturbance in the wind so that the moon image shimmers gently.
