This thesis culminates in an exhibition resulting from the artist's investigation of the relationship between space and time, and on perception and experience of space with connections to 'everyday' ideas of space. A recurring link in this paper is the process of 'being present' in relation to spatial viewing. The artist's studio practice focuses on the visual changes she sees within a particular space or spaces, and how these visual changes are perceived and experienced when presented to the viewer in a photographic image. The intention is to present a photographic image to the viewer that not only changes the space from which it originally came, but also highlights the beauty of the space that may be missed or overlooked. The research questions the way people see, the visual representation of the 'void' or 'empty space', and spatial representation. The paper also discusses how the artist visually perceives and experiences space. The work of other artists and writers who research space, time and perceptual consciousness are also considered.
