    Fig.2. Trans-Alp project (s.d.)

    A drawing generated by the forces at work within a car, the journey’s twists and turns, starts and stops, recorded on a roll of slowly moving paper.  The act of delivery becoming an act of production, departing from London with only an apparatus installed in the back of a hire car, arriving in Northern Italy with a piece of work for the exhibition.

    Fig.6. Nightwalk – Valley of the Rocks #1 (2008)

    Nightwalks are a series of illuminated walks that Tim Knowles created in the countryside during a new moon. Over the period of an hour, the artist walked away from the camera while carrying three wide-beam torches. His path, along a precarious rocky ridge in the darkness, was illuminated and captured using a long-exposure, large-format photograph.
