“We imagine death to be a cold experience but this installation really brings out heat and energy.”
'underground' experience
These are the spaces that were created in the underground where participants were decomposing.
Reflection Corridor
This is the entrance to the underground: a dark corridor leads to a wall of mirrors. A projection in the space allowed light to reflect off the mirrors and created movement.
Mushroom + Crystal Corner
A glowing mushroom structure surrounded by small orbs, smaller mushrooms, crystals, and a video of tunneling underground.
Roots
Large, physical roots coming out of a cave like wall. A projection on the wall played a looping video of roots generating.
Bug
A large 3D bug cut into segments and placed on the wall. It was illuminated by projections of insects and bugs.
