Caroline Jane Harris work from the series Neither Nor - artwork title 'Always & Already'

Neither Nor

The series Neither Nor (2023–25), depicts dynamic tides and horizonless unfurling clouds, reflecting on the infinite universe. The water and waves speak to the essential physical and digital connections of lands through oceans, and people via networks of media. To make this body of work, Harris’ photographs were translated into binary prints then cut from woodgrain-stained papers, which echo the motifs. The residual stencils were used as works in themselves (Time & Change), to make rubbings (Impressions (Rhythm & Motion)) – and photo-etched copper (Hard Copy (Always & Already)), which record the declining matrixes in metal before destroying them completely. In the gallery space, the unframed works delicately enhance materiality. Cloudscapes are suspended overhead and the shorelines on the horizontal planes, responding to atmospheric conditions.
