Animation, 5 minutes, 2017

An image of stars, familiar enough. The camera zooms in while slowly turning. The initial effect of forward movement is soon replaced by the realisation that we are moving inwards. A minute or so into the animation, we have zoomed in far enough for the source of the image to become apparent as it starts to break down into the four-colour dots of the printing process. The image is a reproduction from a book. We are travelling from the macro world of the stars into the micro world of the image itself.
