Work
Artpack, 2021
Digital sculpture / moving image
Short Description
Digitized sculptures lose their weight, drifting and gathering into an unstable moving body.
Long Description
Artpack begins with digital scans of familiar sculptures. Heads, torsos, limbs, plinths, and broken surfaces enter the image as fragments. The scene has no gravity. Figures drift, turn, stretch, and press into one another until individual sculptures form a dense moving mass. The scans keep their ridges, gaps, and errors. Thin traces of green, pink, and blue run across pale, stone-like surfaces. Across the loop, bodies become debris, crowd, and landscape. They gather, pull apart, and begin again.
