Description "An installation exploring fish as metaphor.
During daylight hours, if in full sun, the angler would do well to stand back from the water's edge once he has made his cast. Alternatively, wear sombre clothing and keep moderately still as you wait for that characteristic peck.

Don't jerk the line in your effort to strike the moment a peck is felt, otherwise the fish could lose interest. If it likes the offering it will eventually take it in its mouth and when you feel a tenseness in the line, simply raise the rod and the fish will hook itself. It's as simple as that."
