Derek Kreckler

Littoral, single channel video installation, olefn fbre screen, electric fan, no sound, dimensions variable, 2014

Derek Kreckler (b.1952, Australia) works in performance, video, sound and photography. The littoral zone is an environmental term that describes the space between the shore and the water. Littoral zones are understood as abundant spaces, essential to much plant, animal and marine life. This installation employs the word ‘Littoral’ both literally and metaphorically to acknowledge the rich space of potential between viewer and artwork. In Littoral, waves roll toward an unseen coastline. A fan causes the sliced projection screen to move and fragments the work to create multiple silhouettes. Littoral seeks to create an immersive experience for the viewer using low-f technologies that nonetheless evoke the immensity of sea and sky.

《沿海》，单屏录像装置，纸带屏幕，风扇，2014

德里克·克雷克勒（生于1952年，澳大利亚）的作品包括行为表演、录像、声音和摄影。 ‘沿海地带’是一个环境术语用来描述海岸和水域之间的空间。沿海地带也是富有生机的地 域，对众多海洋生物，植物，陆地动物的生存有直接的影响。装置使用‘沿海’作为名称， 在字面和比喻上承认了在观众和作品之间的富有潜力的空间。在《沿海》中，海浪扑向看 不到的海岸线，电扇吹的风使割成条状的投影屏幕飞舞移动，打碎了作品的整体同时制造出 许多剪影。《沿海》尝试着通过低科技手法给观众创造一种虚拟的经验同时唤起海与天的广 阔。
