Data From The Past

Sculpture Installation

Messages from the past are hidden in data discs, creating a collage reflective sculpture. This work is a reflection on how the world around us changes – and with it how we communicate and reflect.

A family pauses to photograph the sculpture of reflective disks as they catch the light from different angles.
Beautiful hues of purple and blue are created by layers of reflective discs.

Look closely and you will find quotes from philosophers and poets etched by hand into the discs.

We really enjoyed deciphering the text on the disk."
