A super 8 film projected onto a re-made model of a hospital bed, is a miniature work.
Recalling childish fears of the 'man under the bed', it actually shows this figure as vulnerable and restless. The human condition, physical and psychological, inhabiting and experiencing hospital life has informed the work; psychological estrangement within the daily ritual of an institution.
