HELIX, a video piece deriving from our most elemental sources, plays on a continuous loop, glowing deep carnelian.
The piece was developed with the scientific team of the Louvre, looking profoundly through a great deal of diverse organic material. A connectivity of imagery emerged, a thread of curious, disconcerting beauty in the tracing of what we are composed. HELIX nudges perspective to the limit, far past delineation or boundaries.
It was shown during the 2019 Venice Biennale, and in an earlier form in Palermo, during Manifesta 12. It was shown on monitors throughout the Milan Metro system, along with large prints installed throughout, during the summer of 2021.
There is a group of related prints and drawings.
