Stalemate is a photographic installation reproduced from and scaled proportionally to an M1A1 Abrams tank. It is printed on phosphorescent (glow-in-the-dark) paper and installed directly onto the wall in a completely darkened room. As the viewer enters the space, the image is initially not visible. As one's eyes adjust, the faint image of the tank appears. The image is first experienced as a flat, two-dimensional image, but shortly thereafter the viewer begins to perceive the image as expanding and materializing into a three-dimensional volume.
