The artists that most stood out to me at the 'Born After 1924' was Tim Noble and Sue Webster. They use light projections and discarded materials to create sculptural installations and self portraits. The pieces are made from piles of rubbish that have been collected from the streets of London, were they work together. A light is projected against the pile, and the shadow on the wall creates an entirely different image, usually one of the couple themselves. However, this image is not apparent from looking directly at the pile of rubbish.Throughout Noble and Websters careers they have experimented with the idea how humans perceive abstract images and define them with a meaning. I thought that the result was very surprising and powerful as it redefines how abstract forms can turn into figurative ones.
