The material thing vibrating into the emptiness is a video work considering the change encounter across various materialities. In this work, a temporal phenomena of light, materiality, and time occur in their intersections. The work features multiple ‘light elements’ transposed over and beside one another.
One element is comprised of winter light as it filters through a Eucalyptus tree, refracted through a warped 100-year-old windowpane onto the wall on an oblique angle for a brief moment every day over a week, then it is gone.
Another element, the same winter light, filtered through a different Eucalypt, refracting through a glass on a shelf causing it to 'bend' around a corner and streak down the hallway wall.
These quiet domestic moments were recorded every morning for the week and compiled together as visuals for live performance.
In this production of this video, the visual was arranged to sound, and then in response, the performance is informed by the visual, exploring the relationship between the two and the potential they carry in this incidental relationship.
