Abstract:
A layer of water is contained by two sheets of glass. Two motors tilt the glass disc at barely visible angles. A large air bubble slowly changes shape and moves around in the water. It tries to find a new equilibrium under a map of the arctic ice that is printed on top of the glass. A spotlight circles around the installation like a sun. It projects a rotating shadow including motion patterns of the water that are not visible in the original disc.
