Too Close, 1999

Collection of Cheekwood Museum of Art

Life-size forms, dimensions variable

Electronics, silk fabric, wire

Mechanically-driven, Too Close acts as both installation and interactive event, inviting viewers to reexamine their relationship with their environment. Three white, slightly quivering, elongated cocoons hang from the ceiling. Each cocoon independently creates its own dialogue with the viewer, deflating when a person gets too close. The deflated cocoon reinflates only if the viewer remains motionless or walks away.
