Daniel Arsham,
'Fictional
Archeology'
Born:
1980, Cleveland.
Lives / works:
New York.
The idea:
Infusing his
work with the
fictional dimension
of archeology,
Arsham would
like viewers to
imagine that
they could
travel to the
future and look
back at his cast
relics of the
present, from
a dislocated &
curious point
of view.
Geological
materials:
Selenite,
hydrostone,
volcanic ash,
chalk and
sand.
Featured works:
Five eroded
sculptures of
contemporary
human figures
and body parts
&
Two
installations
displaying casts
of modern
artifacts
like future
archeological
finds.
