Exhibited in ‘Liminal Margins’, Pallas Projects / Studios, Dublin, 2010
Media: magnets, perspex, chain
This work intensifies the presence of energy by employing the continious and live force of magnetism as a core sculptural element. Exploring the dynamism of vacant space my concern lies with the visualisation of the otherwise invisible field that surrounds a magnet. This work is composed of two sets of two polar opposite magnets which were anchored to the ground and the ceiling. I placed them at such a distance apart so that they are continiously attracing so that they would remain in this permenant state of equilibrium, only seperated by two sheets of perspex.
