Glove
Forest is an interactive audio video sculpture installation
addressing loss, our environment and accountability. Glove
Forest features video, a surround sound audio collage played
through speakers mounted inside glove tree sculptures,
and an evolving installation of gloves pledged from visitors.The
audio collage is built upon found words; the video: found
visuals; the sculpture: found gloves, just as our other
works are built upon found objects.
The video collage is five-minutes in duration featuring images of nature juxtaposed
with grim footage of landfill sites, merged with semi-translucent faces of young
and old expressing personal experiences of loss, the environment and questioning
our role and responsibility.

Drawing
viewers through the gallery, the video collage’s haunting
vocal soundtrack of arching melodies permeates the exhibition
space. Walking amongst Glove Forest the visitor hears voices
emanating from each of the glove trees. Tension is created between
the glove trees’ surround sound audio
collage and the video soundtrack: challenging and engaging
visitors to alternate between actively listening to the whispering
hanging glove trees and watching the video. For the surround
sound audio collage words were extracted from interviews with
the public and edited into layered rhythmic loops on five discrete
audio channels, each approximately two-minutes in duration.
