Provenance:
Bohun Gallery, Henley-on-Thames, 1996;
Private Collection.
Note:
The double screens designed by Wendy Ramshaw were commissioned in 1995 by the Victoria and Albert Museum for the new staff restaurant, and were installed in 1997. The larger screens were cut by computer controlled water jets which enabled the design to be executed without any deviation from Ramshaw's original design. Each was then inset with an optical glass lense and spray painted.
An account of this commission can be found in Wendy Ramshaw - The Big Works, Hipotesi, Barcelona, 2004.
