Description
A site-specific installation in dialogue with the works of Karel Malich and Evžen Šimera. Díaz perceives the art gallery space as a model and smooth space; landscape at the beginning of its formation, unmarked by time. Using the selected wall segment, he then simulates the process of landscape formation lasting a thousand years and the rise of individual sediments resulting in the procedural status of the grooved space. It is a static capture of the laminar flow of time on the gallery wall, which may turn in real space into a mountain, valley, rock lake, or desert.
