Janet Cardiff in Conversation

with Tamara Saulwick

‘I’ve always loved to escape, whether it was through walks, books, films or dreams, and it’s only now that I realize that’s what I’ve been doing this past decade. I’ve been creating portholes into my other worlds’ Janet Cardiff in The Walk Book

Renowned Canadian artist Janet Cardiff, known for her audio walks and installations works, constructs intricate, intimate and uncanny worlds which play with audience perceptions of time, place and perspective.
