Unforeseeable Memories

With Marie Navarre. This was a large room-sized site specific installation that had multiple simultaneous actions that created a two-month progressive transformation. Many things in the room were programmed to last the length of the exhibition. Multiple images were projected onto the architecture such that extremely slow dissolves between two slide projectors aimed at the same point gradually occurred over the two month period. Sounds slowed down. For example, at the beginning, the sound of water flowing through a pipe could be heard; by the end only a single abstracted drawn-out note was audible. The work was also interactive at a slow pace. If a viewer sat in the chair, the sound of fire would gradually (over twenty or thirty seconds) emerge from it. Materials in the room went from material to powder to form again. Most of these transformations were imperceptible without multiple visits.
