HOMOGENOUS MASS
2018
Installation composed of sand from various locations, endoscopic /macroscopic camera, projection/screen.
If we distance ourselves from our fellow human beings in a crowd, they transform into a faceless mass. When we approach them, individual characteristic traits reappear. The same is true for a pile of sand; composed of indistinct particles, but observed close up through the lens of a microscopic camera, uniqueness appears. In this installation we can shift between the two perspectives or adapt to both of them simultaneously.
This is a site-specific project which uses sand gathered from various Sundbyberg locations such as playgrounds, construction sites and parks to incorporate a notion of a local crowd.
