Seawater/NaCL
2014
Salt and water have a mesmeric quality intimate connected with life and death and the creation of meaning. In Seawater/NaCL micro and macro are seen as one, looking into the micro revels the macro and vice versa. The installation included NACL Studies a video shot with an optical microscope that records the process of formation of salt’ crystals from chloride atoms and Seawater, which shows images of the horizon digitally manipulated to expose the editing process, perhaps a futile attempt at counting infinity.
Seawater/NaCL was a project commissioned for Coastal Current Arts Festival in Hastings; it was shown in the exhibition Space Interrupted curated by Clare Sheppeard at Electro Project Space, St Leonard on Sea in 2014.
