The Guide

This artwork consists of a series of piles of leaves, that move in the smooth motion of a resting breath, the piece is silent except for the sound of the leaves touching one another. Site specific to the city, the artwork exist in both outdoor and indoor spaces from a duration of a few weeks to a few hours.
These small selected clips show the initial installation during the fall of 2008 where the work was placed, filmed and photographed in 25 spaces throughout New York City during the day and night.
The installations exist with no explanation and are intended for both live viewing and for being seen via recorded film, of which there are two parts:
Part 1: Shows each individual leaf pile film looped in a sequence playing on a wall mounted flat screens. It is aimed that this work be shown in a Pubic Building that functions as a crossroads between the local Government and the Cities Inhabitants.
Part 2: Is a never ending documentation, that records the artwork in every location it is shown, throughout in its existence. Stitching each time it is exhibited together to form one unending film, documenting the relationship between the environment, people and the artwork through time.
