UNEARTH is an installation using light and shadow to bring viewers into the experience of looking deeper into a space and the energy that surrounds it. The process of following javali trails to unearth skulls and bone shards was the catalyst for documenting a physical space from a new perspective. Collected and installed javali skeletons invite curiosity and map three-dimensional space in a new way. The physical act of exhuming multiple skeletons is artistically represented as bones floating in space, allowing air to replace soil that once bound the being within. Here, death has been given a new life as the installation allows viewers to see the beauty of light, shadow, and form. Movement of the bones creates its own transient mapping – a drawing of a physical space through light and shadow.
