A video installation in the Railyard Park Rose Ramada, Scanners consisted of geometric animations that were programmed to project onto the surrounding vegetation after sunset each evening. Explained Dolson, “When projected onto a bush or tree, the line becomes a vertical plane of light scanning across the branches of the ‘subject’, exposing detailed structure which is normally not perceived. A familiar plant form therefore becomes exotic, even alien, as details of it’s physical structure are revealed.”
