Woman sitting on Bench combines video and painting to explore the notions of movement and action within image making.

Minimal movement present in the video footage is contrasted with the painted image to create a reflective, meditative space on the painted surface. Here the juxtaposition of video with painted image aims to examine ideas about past, present and future memories in particular
