An artist's book by British conceptual artist Stephen Willats (b. 1943) consisting of black-and-white photographs of the stairwell in Homecourt, Highfields Estate, Feltham, West London.
Beginning at the top floor, each page works gradually downward, with pairs of images presenting the view in either direction and a sentence describing a fragment of heard sound. The book evokes the sensory experience of the vertical public space of the housing block, marked by graffiti, as a chamber of disembodied sounds.
Stephen Willats is a pioneer of conceptual art who, since the early 1960s has created work concerned with extending the territory in which art functions. His work has involved interdisciplinary processes and theory from sociology, systems analysis, cybernetics, semiotics and philosophy.
