There is something that happens when we stand on top of a mountain or at the edge of the ocean and look out at the sky. The immensity of the scene holds us in two spaces simultaneously: an outward universal space and an inner, intensely personal one.
An immersive video installation, Sky Eternal mirrors moving cloudscapes to create a kind of kinetic Rorschach inkblot. Accompanied by an ambient soundscape, this mesmerising work mediates on the ways in which the universal and timeless sky unites us all.
This interview by Shelley Matulick looks at some of the ideas behind Sky Eternal
