instalation project with exhibition
January 30, 2012
“Death city”:
is an eye- witness view, passing by a scene; you don’t know what have happened. You see the aftereffect of a destructive action. The object becomes the totality of the howl scene. The objects are communicating, interacting and shaping each other. The glass burns the wood, the wood shapes the glass. The liquidity of the glass shaped by the wood takes the shapes and solidifies. Leaving the witness to enjoy a “frozen second” as the world keeps burning.
This is a place specific installation, in the sense that I will build it up and fit it to the space. I will never build it up two times as the exact same, but let the room and materials communicate for the best image.
