Airports are exhi­bi­tion spaces in tran­sition as transient junc­tures. These photographs like the trav­eler, gather together momentarily at the gate before con­tin­u­ing. As portrai­tures these photographs of Hard­ing's installations cap­ture a fleeting display of sculp­ture acting in and on the world.

Each photo­graph doc­u­ments and unites a poet­ically fanciful, whimsical vision under­pinning a dynamic of human systems. From commodity to consumption a romance for nature 'lost' is suggested in juxtapo­sitions of the nat­ural, the arti­ficial and the techno­logical. Conceptual impact is rooted in unconventional ges­tured constructions each formed to interrogate human­ity's relation­ship to technology and the envi­ron­ment.
