iamme
2003
A large-scale Virtual Reality work.
'The 3-D works are portable landscapes. They are intended to be exhibited in galleries or in public spaces. Data projected their surface area measures approximately [w] 12m x [h] 5m. These large-scale works show the influence of American colorfield paintings from the 50s, particularly the work of Barnett Newman. For more on colorfield, the sublime and the relationship to painting, see the e-say thethingasitis™ (2000).'
(From Michael Atavar Web Notes)
We are working to reformat iamme. The fast-moving nature of technology often means that works beyond 20 years old can find that the platforms that supported them do not exist any more. There are some screen images here that we have managed to reconstruct.
