One Way or Another

By  Chris Wright 2012 - 2013

Chris Wright

This work relates to previous work where space was delineated and boundaries defined.. The interest here is in the concept of particles being able to exist in more than one place at the same time. The fan creates a disturbance of the particles but also adds to them by the presence of the viewer. The traces of the presence of the viewer such as dust, hair, the exhalation of breath, remain in the space after the viewer has left and become mixed with the traces of other viewers as well as those created by the fabric of the building itself. The fan creates a disturbance of all these particles and minute traces thus altering the space.
