This work was developed for exhibition in the Margaret Harvey Gallery at The University of Hertfordshire's Law faculty in St Albans in 2000.
The installation was exhibited again at the Rugby Art Gallery and Museum in 2001.
"The work relates strongly to the learning environment and the learning process itself, exploring the mysterious divide between the visual and the textual world. The installation has evolved through her choices of material, a diversity of media, and the academic context of the installation. Fragile beeswax pillars, scrolls and organic forms placed on a bed of mirrors are cross referenced with the printed word. This literary symbolism emphasises the possible misrecognition or replication of reality and its ultimate subjectivity." (Matthew Shaul, UH Galleries)
