SECONDS BEFORE MIDNIGHT
Human Landscapes Part 1 Part 2 Digital Violence Sanctuaries Interiors Memories |
My current project, entitled Seconds Before Midnight, deals with global warming, mental health and human propensity for violence. In other words, it elaborates on the current phenomena of self-destruction experienced by the ape self-identified as Homo Sapiens. It is set in three parts, each illustrating its own point of view on the subject of disappearance and loss.Human LandscapesPart 1 explores the growing effects of Climate Change through images of destruction, mostly floods, forest fires and cyclones. Part 2 develops the same themes while investigating psychological ramifications. Digital covers the same themes while using the computer as a medium. The series Violence deals with the inevitability of war and human greed. It is currently in production.SanctuariesInteriors searches for consciousness and identity within the home and inside the human body, as both are set as a receptacle. Memories examines the past and filial relationships where guilt and nostalgia may impede our way toward the future.
NOTICE In 2019, the clock was set at 2 minutes to midnight. In 2022, at 100 seconds, and on the 24th of january 2023, it was set at 90 seconds before midnight, the closest it has ever been to midnight since its creation. It is important to note however that the hand my be made to move away from its ultimate deadline. |
