Swing Space: Media/Art/Space
Jennifer Steinkamp
On view to October 16, 2005
Loom, a work by Los Angeles-based artist Jennifer Steinkamp, deftly uses projected video and animation to explore issues of architectural space, motion and phenomenological perception. As viewers move through Steinkamp’s installation, their shadows become interlaced with the moving images so that their bodies and actions become incorporated into the artwork itself.
