Meridian by Julie Anne Mann
Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

This is the photograph at true size, for placing it in your room with your phone. Its sides and back will appear here after the studio capture — we will not invent them.

The surface under moving light

This view is built only from real photographs of the work, each lit from a different angle, so you can move the light yourself and watch the real surface answer. It is being captured in the studio and will appear here. Until then we show nothing rather than an imitation.

“It's a working artists' school, a great school model.”— Julie Anne Mann

A great inverted triangle of wasp nest material is fixed to a dark brown panel, apex pointing down, its lower point ragged where the structure ends. Nearly five and a half feet wide. Mann takes the most fragile building material in the natural world and imposes on it the most severe geometry she uses — a shape from surveying and navigation. The papery grey against the deep brown is the whole colour event.
