Vortex Filtering

A fantasy artwork designed to encourage the fabrication of a giant underwater filtration system that purifies our water and environment. Projected on a large wall site, a colossal sized fan with attached membrane is imagined continually spinning and cleaning particles as if recycling through a below sea level drain. Trapped debris renewed through natural processes restores nutrient value to this fictional underwater bed. Source material for my recent artworks can be found in new environmental research articulating sustainable theories and systems currently being explored in architectural practice. My ephemeral sculptural installations are designed to bridge the conceptual and sensual.
