Iron filings under the influence of a magnetic field. The appearance of James Carpenter’s work is serene. It gives the impression, however, that _ something new will happen amidst its supposed serenity, and that other forces apart from those _ already apparent are about to enter its field. The work produces an inhabited depth, by shifting emphasis away from the visual registers of perception, towards multiple engagements of a subject, her/his spatial constructs, and their resulting environment.
