'ManyanthOMES' . . . Video Stills
and Sculpture . . . 1998
This work incorporates images from
my video diary from trips to the Northern Territory Images from
my Sculptures are scanned and digitally maneuvered within the
piece to relate and enhance the outback forms. Attention is focused
on the transition that takes place with my man made forms against
the natural termite mounds.
These termite mounds are imposing
and spectacular and are homes to millions of ants that live off
the grasses on the planes. They often align in the direction
of North to South so the ants can work on the cool side and escape
the heat of the day. They are also elevated above the ground
to avoid flooding when heavy rains come
