Notes: 
"A project for 'On the Edge', organised by Hå gamle prestegard as part of Stavanger 2008 at the Eigeroya Lighthouse, Egersund, Norway."
Published to accompany the exhibition held May 4-August 31, 2008.
"The work comprises 100 mirrored golden vessels suspended down the centre of the lighthouse and over its five floors. Each vessel, shaped like a raindrop, a tear, or possibly an odd bottle is sealed at the top by a cork. Inside each vessel I have placed a text, image, drawing, photograph, object or idea sent to me by other artists (of all media), authors, and architects, who I have invited to join me in the lighthouse"--Page 7.
