Swimming

at the Speed of

111km/h



2017

Swimming at the Speed of 111km/h experiments with how separate elements come together to form a cohesive piece. A cement mold hangs on the wall, a water basin sits on the floor, and a projected video interacts with these objects. Though physically distinct, each element retains its material properties while connecting through reflections in an acrylic box and lighting effects, creating a dynamic interplay between physical and illusionary space.

Blurring the boundaries between solid and fluid, real and projected, this installation explores how meaning emerges through spatial relationships.

Stock footage recontextualizes familiar imagery, challenging conventional narratives and authorship.

This piece reflects my experience of navigating urban spaces—where repetition and dislocation coexist. It attempts to construct a non-existent situation, where fragmented movements and unexpected connections reshape the relationship between space and self.
