The process
In this series, Ben is telling me about his wrist, held together by a metal plate since a skateboarding accident. He identified the ski lift on Mt. Norquay with it's metal struts driven into the land to be an accurate metaphor for his feeling about this. In his narrative, he references connections to technology and organic matter, with adjustment to intrusions.
In the final installation, edited audio tracks were embedded in a body built of earth, and triggered with pressure and light sensors - a playful way to make the invisible visible, to discuss our relationship to our personal and physical environments and explore sharing information about interconnectedness of our bodies, our earth.
Images
The following images can be found pinned in Google Earth - images documenting the journeys and activities by the participants in the project who, with artifacts from the land, went to a location to muse on their stories of scars.
