Description
Using a clock mechanism to animate different layers of landscape and time the False Economies collage series brings together formally similar topographies, which momentarily look as though they might match-up and connect, to consider how different cultures inhabit and relate to their respective landscapes
Against a background of melting icecaps and deforestation, hours, minutes and seconds from other disparate parts of the globe turn within each other, all unified by time and the same problems of environmental neglect.
The minutes of the Malaspina Glacier in Alaska turns within the hours Lena Delta in Russia whilst the seconds of Jameson Land and Hall Brednig in Greenland rush on.
The mesmerising beauty of these works highlights the complacency of simply 'looking-on' and speaks of need to act and relate to these spaces and places
if global catastrophe is to be averted.
