La Plata, Buenos Aires 2018
Three paradoxical devices made of broken PVC pipes, wire, feathers and an old Macintosh screen –
all found in the streets of La Plata. The Flying, Drowning and Landing machine are charming in their
function not to function. Or at least, not in a precise technical way. A broken machine is a liberated
machine starting over. Machines with no accurate function meet organic matter. With some human
interaction.
Flying machine
a fan opposite a net cage full with feathers
/PVC pipes, metal, feathers, sound/
whenever the fan spins,
the produced wind makes
the feathers take off.
Drowning machine
/springs, computer screen, video projection/
drowning seen from jumping up and down in
the air, full with rusty water old computer screen,
video of a sky – zoom in and out
Landing machine
/balloons, a chair, soil,
sound of popping balloons/
balloons reaching
gradually
a pile of soil
