The show is over. The exhibition has happened. Here are some (dark) images. (video in previous post)
As the sun sets and its lustre glows and then fades, a moth emerges from its leafy home seeking a new source of light in the gloom. Approaching a light bulb it hesitates, ponders and absorbs this new source of brightness. Suddenly it dives directly at the bulb, crashing headlong into the hot white glow then without allowing any time for recovery it gets up and dives again and again.
“The glittering light may have dazzled you, and the gold of the lamp may be beautiful but there are many things in this world that look bright, pretty moth but they only dazzle to lead us astray!”
There are also some nice photos on the Space Programme website: http://fargospace.posterous.com/september-the-beacon-light-requiem-by-cormac
