SHAPE OF CHANGE, 2009

ABOUT | PARTICIPATE | COMMUNITY

The Shape of Change is an art work that examines the perception of change, differentiation and independence in personal and political contexts through two projects.

The first project is an expanded sculpture project exploring the evolving nature of the United States’ relationship with Iraq, examining citizens’ concepts of political change, independence and democracy; and creating a series of visualizations, sculptures and dialogs from the acquired data.

The second piece is a musical performance generated by analyzing sound, image and movement data from the first months of a baby’s life as he learns to walk and speak.

The sculpture work will explore the development of sovereign political states; the performance work will investigate the creation of human subjectivity. Comparing the two will portray the nature of separation and formation of identity, from a macro and micro perspective, as expressed through music and sculpture.

To contribute to the project, please respond to the questionnaire here.
