Sculpture Augmented Reality
Inspired by quite a peculiar scene in occupied Palestinian town Tel Arad in the Dead Sea, wheresalt concentration is over 10 times that of the ocean; an isolated island of salt hosting a tree, surrounded by turquoise water stands against nature.
The artist ponders this phenomena and questions what does it mean for an environment to be designed to self-righten, renew and rebalance on molecular levels? And how can fiction help us grasp the concept of nature adapting to natural disasters.
The tree in this experience is a three dimensional representation of a graph in Gabor Domok’s paper on the evolution of shapes, specifically primary equilibrium classes, the graph indicate arbitrarily small truncations of the convex body, explaining how shapes transform into each other by creating one additional sink (equilibrium) or source (disequilibrium) and a saddle-point at a time.
