• “Parasol,” Jessica Warboys’s solo debut show, was dominated by two large unstretched canvases at opposite ends of the gallery, both indexical in procedure. Blue Parasol, 2009, is actually a cyanotype photogram: Warboys made it by coating the canvas with a light-sensitive solution, placing a bundle of reeds in a circular formation suggesting the shape of an open parasol at its center, and exposing it to the sun. Sea Painting, Dunwich, 2009, was formed by immersion in the ocean, its pigment spread by the waves. Importantly, the artist has cut significant portions of each canvas away, revealing the doors on each wall in the exhibition.

Well, it's a design where the stalk always returns to the center position no matter whether you simply tap it to indicate a lane change or depress it fully to indicate a turn. To cancel a "long" indicator, you have to tap in the reverse direction but not so far that you accidentally indicate the opposite turn. That may sound a lot like the way a "normal" turn signal indicator works, but the lack of a detent to "grab" it when you're signaling a turn will play havoc with your muscle memory.
