Under The Ground
Installation, multiple screens, rubble, digital photos, variable dimensions
2020

Something emerges from the ground, between digital space and ruined space.

Under the ground is an installation featuring the fragments of a post-apocalyptic landscape of the digital age. Our memory/humanity, stored online in destroyed data centres, tries to re-emerge by offering us the jolts of objects that are no longer. We are faced with a primitive form of our data, these screens, like scans or models of a vanished world, are relics of the past and present amidst the rubble. Images rise to the surface sifted by time, resisting a fading world and data.

This installation becomes a slow deterioration of the performance and integrity of stored data. We find ourselves in an arid, desert environment, physically and visually withering away this data.
