Tell Tale Heart, the sculpture, was made for an exhibition curated by artist Harland Miller at White Cube gallery, London in 2008 (although the show was conceived a long while earlier hence its earlier date). The work was shown in a section of the exhibition that was held in the dark cellers of Shoreditch Town Hall. The exhibition was called You dig the tunnel, I'll hide the soil.

All the works in the show were based on stories by Edgar Allen Poe and Tell Tale Heart took its title and initiative from one of his famous short stories about a man who imagines he hears his blue eyed victim's heart beating under the floorboards... and thus convicts himself.

A wooden sealed vitrine has a hole in the top into which you can look. Inside an illuminated blue eye set into a wax heart looks back.

Tell Tale Heart, the print, is a digital image on somerset paper showing the circular view, as seen through the spy hole -  the eye set into its heart. This was produced in 2007.
