CARLA CHAN
WHEN A CIRCLE MEETS THE SKY
2 channel video installation, 2016
WHEN A CIRCLE MEETS THE SKY reflects on the intriguing relationships among nature, technology and human agency. Shot in the Mojave Desert, USA (2012) and Melchsee-Frutt, Switzerland (2016), the video of the installation is created by a custom-made vane capturing reflections of a mirror determined by wind speed and direction at the location. The camera looks both forward and backward simultaneously. Instead of a cameraperson selecting our perspectives, the artist allows the wind to choose our views.

CARLA CHAN, born 1989, lives and works in Berlin and Hong Kong. Carla Chan obtained her Bachelor of Arts Degree from the School of Creative Media, City University of Hong Kong. She works with a variety of media including video, installation, photography and interactive media. Her recent work focuses on the ambiguity in nature. Bridging natural transformation and unpredictable computer algorithms, her work is consolidated with a cohesive dynamic between form, means and content.

SOUNDS OF SATELLITES
Space may be an anechoic place, but it is no longer empty. An expansive sound installation allows the visitor to experience the incorporeal but constant existence of men-made objects flying above our heads.
