Using Alison Frantz’s photographs of the entire remains of the Parthenon Frieze, this work recreates in miniature previous installations in the Grecian 2000 series (see 2005/3). The lights return some colour to the once gaudily painted marbles, whilst making the cast of Greeks appear to be discoing on a light-up dance floor.
