der gesteingeist
This was a site specific installation created as a part of a residency at sub-art in Ražanj, Croatia. August 2010.
I wanted to have some interaction between the digital character and the real world, and the sea is such a primal force in this place, it was natural to use water. The limestone rocks are characters unto themselves.
Gesteingeist is a made-up word, loosely translated as “rock ghost” or “rock spirit.” The German language is widely spoken in Ražanj, and also by my good friends who helped me make this installation.
