Sculptures for Distant Places

Sculptures for Distant Places are a series of three networked sculptures titled Sculpture for Mountains, Sculpture for Lakes and Sculpture for Forests. They are a continuation and development of ideas conceived during the creation of Netscapes. Each sculpture has been created in response to a specific place in Canada, Japan and the Czech Republic, which is streamed via webcam online. The sculptures employ aspects of those sites and combine them with aspects of the gallery, the site from which the sculptures are seen, as input. The outcome, are visual and aural sculptures assembled as a result of the combination of distant and local sites, their places and times merged through the space of a network and allowing act on each other.
