400 CUBIC METRES/ SECOND

A multi media installation, with photographs developed on transparent film, and sound, 2003.
The photographs are taken from two of a series of waterfalls that together form the awesome terrace waterfall Dynkur in the river Thjorsa. The audio is composed of the recorded sound of the same waterfalls. The title refers to the mass of the flowing water.
At the time of the creation of the artwork there were plans to create dams and a water reservoir in the river that would have seriously damaged the over 40 meter high waterfalls.

The photographs are fitted between two sheets of glass in a stainless steel construction.
The audio can be either played from an audio system or it can be carried through a wireless headset, so that one can freely move around the installation while listening to the "voice" of the waterfall. 

Exhibited at the exhibition
Zahlen – Zeit - Zeichen, in Galerie Van der Koelen, Mainz, Germany, 2003, 
location of photo: Cologne Artfair 2003
