Before it all Melts
2019

A time-based projection installation onto two large slabs of ice. Two human figures become aware that they are trapped within the ice over a 15 minute period (moving from indifference to terrified), all the while the ice slowly melts.
​
The work explores the impacts globalisation, accumulation, speed and extraction have on our relationships with one another and the planet.
​
Presented as part of the Connect for Creativity Art and Technology Residency at Atölye in Istanbul, funded by the British Council Turkey and the European Union.
