This is a another of the series of Love Stories, all using this physical format. The camera seen reflected here would normally be a bright reflection of the viewer, standing in front of the work as if looking into a mirror. The piece is an eight minute continuous loop of statements which would be seen superimposed on the viewer's image of themselves.
