“Skin of the Earth” is an exercise in spatial reading, a sculptural 3D animated work with hand-written inscriptions alluding to metaphors of physical and geological time, where reality is not fixed but continuously unfolding in a series of potentialities.
The words shift and bend as the surfaces of the virtual object ‘breathe’ in its digital space, in a dynamic interplay between the visual and the verbal. Each line evokes vivid imagery and sensations associated with both skin and the earth’s surface, exploring the processes of change and transformation that can be traced through the sculptural surfaces.
The words are not merely painted on the surface; they emerge as protruding reliefs, inviting a haptic form of engagement. In this experience of non-linear reading, the viewer is invited to interact with the text through the contours and undulations of the 3D form. The text itself becomes a part of the sculptural animated loop, creating a dynamic experience between reading and viewing.’
