Installing Where to put the sky, a large piece of unprocessed, yet partly pre-exposed black and white photographic paper,
which is allowed to react to light over the duration of the exhibition. One half of the image divided horizontally has been expos
ed
to light in the studio. As unprocessed black and white photographic paper undergoes colour changes from cream white to light blue,
from blue to purple and to brown when exposed to light over a longer time, Michael expects that the viewer can see an image
reminiscent of a seascape. The bottom half of the picture is a brownish purple colour, while the upper part of the picture will change
colours as described above until finally becoming one with the lower part.
