Résine acrylique noire en Impression 3D, 2020
Postvision (Ostavinska) is a data sculpture created from the environmental archive gathered during the exhibition "Something about Plants and Cables" in 2017 in Belgrade. A tree is transported into the city to the exhibition site. A weather station collects environmental data both inside and outside the gallery.
Designed from the point cloud representing temperature, humidity, and sound level, Postvision (Ostavinska) explores the potential of the meteorological archive as a narrative of environmental interactions. This sculpture serves as documentation and reinterpretation of an exhibition that concluded with the planting of a white birch tree.
The sculpture will be accompanied by a digital file including an environmental archive, a sound file, a digital object and a PDF.
