This work is part of a series called Space interrupted.

Conceptually, “Space interrupted” refers to structures and systems that connect and separate individuals or groups of individuals.

Compositionally, McCagg is playing with the effect of introducing new elements that should not fit but which in fact complete the image. Here, she is thinking of shifts in one’s perception at the moment of contact between 2 things. For instance, standing in nature at the edge of a canyon when the cloud cover moves in and changes the whole visual experience, noticing a shift in the wind or becoming aware of someone behind you.
