…are moving image artists Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt. Their latest work, entitled Black Rain, is a collection of images taken from the HI (Heliospheric Imager) onboard the twin satellite, solar mission, STEREO. These are unprocessed, un-cleaned, raw data images of the journey that the STEREO craft pursues, charting the earth's orbit around the sun. The solar winds, comets and planets, set against a multitude of stars, are complete with recording artefacts and evidence of the capturing process – reminding us of our own continual presence as observer.
