Cerith Wyn Evans Things are conspicuous in their absence...
When Cerith Wyn Evans watched subtitled films on TV as a teenager, he became fascinated by the gap in understanding between the text and the picture. Here his neon text recalls a time in the past, when something that has now disappeared from view was taken for granted. What’s been lost? Perhaps a person, or an object, or even a way of life; the viewer is invited to consider their own response to loss and change. The memory of lost things is a constant feature of the present.
