- Long In this installation view, a bright yellow projection on the rear wall of the room stands in stark contrast to the the darkened room. A clear glass of water sits in the center of the projection, while an arm reaches in from the upper right of the frame, holding a paintbrush over the glass. A single dark drop from the brush has just entered the glass but has not yet diffused. Light from the projection reflects off the surface of two black benches in the foreground.
