My current work, Look to the Sky, is a contemplation of our thoughts as a broadcast medium across the sky and beyond. , is on display this week at Fabbrica del Vapore as part of Salone del Mobile 2010.

Look to the Sky was made possible through the kind assistance of Mind The Box, a Berlin association that promotes cultural inter-city exchange, and Process 4 Labs.

I have always been fascinated by space as a representation of the future and the hope that it inspires. Look to the Sky is a physical representation of our imagination and of our thoughts as they are broadcast across the sky and beyond.

Inspired by German abstract sculptor Norbert Krick and his Raumplastik series. 30m x 8m. Plastic wire, fishing line, light.

Lithuanian artist Zilvinas Kempinas uses unspooled video tape as a primary medium in his installations to create beautiful, fluid pieces. I’m quite chuffed he’ll be exhibiting at the Transmediale Future Obscura event in Berlin next week.

More of his work can be found here.

One of my favourite places in Japan is Naoshima, an island dedicated to art. One of my favourite exhibitions on the island is Yukinori Yanagi’s World Flag Ant Farm.
