Antipodes (Live Feeds), 2013

Antipodes
10 paired wall-mounted monitors with live webcam feeds

Antipodes (Live Feeds) was an installation of live webcam feeds displayed on ten paired monitors created for the artist's solo exhibition at Phoenix, Leicester, UK. The work forms part of a larger project Antipodes, a primarily online artwork launched on the Northward Equinox 2013, which captured webcam images from places on exact opposite sides of the globe. These paired places, situated as far away from each other as it is physically possible to be, were watched by the website unblinkingly, for one year. For the duration of the Antipodes exhibition, visitors could also watch activity ten of these webcams live on monitors at Phoenix gallery.

The Antipodes project evolved to include other physical and digital works created from the data collected on antipodes.uk.com. A series of photographic prints and time-lapse videos were created from the continuous flow of images captured by the project website and five unique drawings depicting antipodal geographies were created for the artist's solo exhibitions at Spacex, Exeter and Pheonix, Leicester.

Commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella, in association with Spacex.
