Iris Out
Simon Payne UK, 2008, 10', SD video
A video that's composed of single frames from sequences of expanding or contracting irises, reformatted for different aspect ratios. In the middle of the piece there are rows that incorporate nine contrasting sequences comprising six different colours and tones in alternating combinations. As with my other videos, it's the relation between the edges of planes and the shape of the screen that I’m interested in – and what's fascinating to me is the way in which the colour fields are reproduced by the eye and brain, affecting consciousness and perception.
