    JULIA DAVIS 2012 Unrealized Project:

    HORIZONTAL FALL 13 minute HD Video, Four channel surround sound A ten-minute video shot in the restricted access area of the Wieliczka Salt mine in Poland 2009 is projected in a 3.5m diameter area on the floor of the convict workshop on Cockatoo Island Sydney Australia. (see images 1 &2). The 13-minute HD video follows a miner through a series of gateways and corridors into the collapsing 17th Century salt encrusted tunnels and caves. The viewer is lead underground from an industrial space into a living breathing mineralogical space. Here, the evaporative process of salt formation creates morphological change on a human time scale. Four channel real time sound of a lift descending underground followed by the sound of the saline environment dripping, accompanies the moving image.
