Combining projected moving images, coloured light, and architectural space, her work questions how technology shapes our understanding of the natural world. \u003cem\u003eLife Is a Time-Based Medium\u003c\/em\u003e continued these concerns, presenting immersive installations that blurred distinctions between documentary, cinema, and environmental experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe invitation functions as both exhibition announcement and image carrier. One side circulates the exhibition through administrative information; the other retains a single photographic moment extracted from a time-based work. Removed from its original mailing context, it becomes a compact record of the exhibition’s public circulation and of Hauser \u0026amp; Wirth’s programme during a significant period in Thater’s career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShipping and handling included in the listed price.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hauser \u0026 Wirth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53807141093714,"sku":"THATER-HW-INV-2015","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/5636\/1554\/files\/Thater_Diana._Show_invite_Life_is_a_time_based_medium_._2014.jpg?v=1782033354","url":"https:\/\/thenewrare.com\/products\/diana-thater-life-is-a-time-based-medium-hauser-wirth-london-2015","provider":"The New Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
