JAMES THOMPSON

A series of mixed media multi-dimensional interventions recorded over a 95 day period from a former confinement room at High Royds Psychiatric Hospital in West Yorkshire, while it was being converted into luxury accommodation. The work constructs an alternative parallel understanding of the room, enabling the viewer to simultaneously experience the space across a series of parallel dimensions from within the exhibition space. The work is now part of the Anthony Shaw Collection at York Art Gallery.
