24 PALMS is an art project in Newport, Gwent, part of the U.R.B.A.N. Newport project.

It is a development of Goes Around, an earlier collaboration between Andrew Bolton and Maja Palser in Newport.

It combines video and drawing by Andrew Bolton with music by Maja Palser to explore some of Leonardo Da Vinci's ideas.

“the lights which may illuminate opaque bodies are of 4 kinds. These are: diffused light as that of the atmosphere.. and direct, as that of the sun.. the third is Reflected light; and there is a 4th which is that which passes through bodies, as linen or paper or the like.” (Leonardo Da Vinci)

It is that fourth light that brings the shadow pictures in these photos into existence.

The drawings on the windows in 24 PALMS are based on Leonardo's ‘Vitruvian Man’ (c. 1487).
