Shaft, 2004, video, 4mins 30secs
Shaft takes the viewer through a number of department stores in
London and New York. In the video the lift doors are treated as
an editing device. This effect allows for a seamless journey between
sites so that the carefully designed interiors of each store are
built into a single architecture. The individual interiors appear
as follows:
Tiffany’s 2nd Floor,
Bloomingdales 3rd Floor,
Liberty’s 3rd Floor,
Dickens and Jones Lower Ground,
Debenhams 5th Floor,
John Lewis 3rd Floor
Bloomingdales Ground Floor,
Bloomingdales 2nd Floor,
