From a tangle of manuscripts, research notes and fateful box of photographs, Lindsay seers tries to make sense of her step-sisters strange and desperate variant of in which photographs become a means of divination. The search for her missing sibling takes the artist to the Vatican library in Rome where Queen Christina of Sweden's manuscripts may hold the key to Christine's mysterious disappearance to Uppsala in 2000. As the photographs are translated through both an excess and lack of memory the characters who attempt to interpret them move fluidly across interlocking histories. Each photograph becomes destabilised by its shifting context and the interpretive nuances of its users.
Christine's fate hangs on the exegetical battle between two narrators locked in a struggle for the truth of the photographs. In the end it is photographic truth itself that is at stake.
