about

This single is the soundtrack for a video art piece shown @ LUME Studios, 393 Broadway in NYC for the show “Recursive Reflections” curated by Clay Devlin for Sub¿ective Art (coinciding with Frieze / Volta 2023).

Fjallsárlón was created from neural radiance field (NeRF) video files captured during drone flights over Iceland’s lesser-known glacier lagoon and the tongue of the enormous Vatnajökull glacier. This piece is a compilation of several individual video loops, taking viewers on a journey through exploded 3D geometry. While 3D photogrammetry and LIDAR rapidly integrate into our daily lives, I enjoy using the quirks and artifacts of this technology to showcase dramatic deconstructed landscapes. The fractured icebergs are remnants of centuries past. Here, they are incorporated into current discussions surrounding technology which is evolving in ways we cannot yet fully understand—perhaps contributing to positive evolution or perhaps signaling irreversible destruction.
