Open Call: WangShui
JUN 19 – AUG 25, 2019
A translucent video sculpture exploring the haptics of legibility and distance
About this commission
Sliver is a translucent video sculpture installed along The Shed’s windows facing the Hudson Yards Public Square. Weaving together dismantled fragments of LED meshes designed for distant skyline advertisements, Sliver presents unevenly to viewers inside and outside the glass, shifting between image, object, and whisper.
