More Melting (2008-2011)

An attempt to locate the character of video in other materials and forms. A monitor, cast in wax, becomes a time-based video. The wax melts; it is a physically moving image. Turn it on with a match and it transmit meaning. A memorial to its obsolescence. An amplification of the legacy of an ephemeral medium's finite reality. More Melting, moving image installation: palm, beeswax, soy, and paraffin wax, wicks, fire, 2008-2011.
