Project: Resurfacing
R E S U R F A C I N G
Resurfacing captures and archives snapshots or moments in the urban cityscape. These moments are evaluated both by the dynamics within the frame and by the behaviour of the audience. The public both explores and evaluates these moments through a tactile interface.
The process of the work and its creation is conceptualized as the interface between interactive media and architecture. The work explores not only space but delves into the complex relationship between space and time.
Walking up to the gallery, we catch a sudden glimpse of ourselves on a large rear-proejection screen that is nestled into a gallery window and visible from the street. In addition to ourselves, we see that the image is multlayered with other street traffic, cyclists, cars and pedestrians. Composed of both static and moving elements, the image becomes a combination of multiple moments in time. Below the screen, we can see a small moving video camera.
