The Accumulator, a participatory performance that took the form of a game, commissioned by Deutsche Bank for Frieze London 2023.

The performance consisted of two games, the first, a game to select fragments of negative to print with by flipping casino chips onto negatives.

The second a game where fragments of negative along with other materials and objects were played onto paper stock sensitised with cyanotype. The action played was dictated by a spinning wheel. The game was played with the results of the actions accumulating on the paper until it was decided the game was finished. Once finished the print was exposed.
