If a Tree Falls in the Forest…

 

Documentation from a six-hour site-specific installation:

2017, manipulated found footage and sound. In collaboration with Meghan Adkins.

If A Tree Falls In The Forest … visually draws inspiration from the rhetorical question it’s title points to, as well as the phasing music of Steve Reich. First presented on the exterior walls of the Mills Art Museum over the course of six hours, this installation focuses on nature and environmental cycles, including those generated through human interference, to comment on the nature of institutionalism.
