Sodium, 2020

Site Specific Installation

Aluminium, sodium lights, cable, black acrylic, timers

Sodium highlights our evolving relationship to technology within our cities and the impact upon our lived experience and environmental systems. It explores the ambiguous period of transitioning through dusk and speculates on possible alternate strange realities through combining outdated technology with new fabrication methods. Housed within an aluminium structure three sodium lights power on and off intermittently creating a space which is undefined, resulting in a performative moment between object and person. Alongside sits a dark pool of water which acts as a portal, a window to the future or a dark reflection of the present.
