A new site-specific commission for Barnaby 2013. Funded by ACE and MIRIAD

The heads reflect the precise measurements of the artists’ heads taken from biomedical facial scans. Their gradual inflation and deflation cycles give the impression of an animated presence in a space that is still, even frozen in time. The scale of the forms recasts the audience in miniature, enabling them to experience the interface between the architecture, the human and the imagination. Two of the pieces have been newly commissioned for the Barnaby Festival and together form 'The Air That Held Them'.
