Site specific installation, 1mx1m

The installation is constructed from geometric perspex sheets, coated with one-way mirror film, which created a translucent, semi-permeable effect. Within the prism, two video streams show documentation from the Liffey’s source, high in the Wicklow mountains. The location of the work at the Silicon Docks, and its refined, futuristic visual was inspired by the opacity of contemporary systems, especially in relation to the internet. I wanted to create a work that spoke to the re-emergence of faith as the primary mode through which to interpret the unknowability of the modern world. The prism acts as a portal, connecting the river’s source and mouth, creating complex overlaying images.
