CELLULAR LIFE

From the photographs of appartment blocks I took, I edited it into a film and placed these geometric living quaters inside a frame. I then shaved a rectangular space in my head and projected the video onto this. Apparently it looks a lot better in real life and work better as a living sculpture. The video documentation is not as strong.

People live in geometric spaces that restrict their perception of life in this world\infinite universe. Paintings hang in galleries within the same constrictions. Religion controled art for many years and here this is represented by the shaved patch of which a monk might have. Monks live in cells and this gives an impression of control. Now the gallery controls art and we are like the drones who bought penance for their sins but now buy paintings of "big name" artists at the Frieze Fair.
