Video works examining geochemical origins of objects and materials. Components of the broader Spirits on the Ground installation, exploring consciousness and life through natural accumulations rather than individual subjects.
The work examines geochemical origins of objects and materials. Petroleum, which forms toys and plastic elements, originates from fossilized organisms. Batteries contain essential life elements like carbon, zinc, and potassium. The piece explores consciousness and life through natural accumulations rather than individual subjects.
Components include torn mechanical toys, rusty batteries, cell-garbage bags, plastic materials, water-activated dinosaur eggs, videos of koi fish on nylon lakes, and remnants of failed or non-existent ecosystems. The installation creates hybrid atmospheres without foreground or background, where objects transform into events and vice versa.
