 ONE

‘One’ explores the ‘symbiotic tension’ between Earth and Moon, regarding, influencing and transforming each other in a single, dynamic system. This unity creates a balance in energy and influence which directly intersects with the Chinese philosophy of Yin and Yang, an eternal system of renewal where opposing energies work together to create harmony and balance.

This artwork consists of a single screen video, composed of near-live video, data-driven animation and pre-rendered animation.
