ein Zirkel [A Pair of Compasses] | 2018
Installation
Mixed-media

The object imitates both the mechanism of a pair of compasses as a drafting tool used for depicting space and the functions of a clock as a tool for measuring time.
Either way, its function is disrupted. Movement and rhythm are random and hectic; each hand is moving in its own multi-dimensional path as the graphite edges leave their traces on the wall. These two linear units are trapped in their own motion, struggling to complete a circle.
