“…with mountains shall the discerning one learn to build! It is a small thing for the spirit to remove mountains…” - Nietzsche
A three channel sculptural video installation created for the exhibit Divergent Geometries at the José Drudis-Biada Art Gallery at Mount St. Mary's College in Los Angeles.
Mountain II is an attempt to build a mountain using methods inspired by image mapping in 3d modeling software and Google Earth’s terrain view – composited video landscapes are projected onto a faceted construction, stretching the image out as it follows the shapes of the form. The video is in some places abstracted, distorted and pixilated, and in other places a clear representation of landscape.
