In this installation wind is captured outdoors, then transmitted and reproduced in a hermetic like glass cube right underneath. Receipt paper is slowly intruded into the space and blown by four fans, in the direction and the speed from the wind outside. To cover the whole room the fans are positioned in the corners, instead the corners would be left out and paper would get stuck. The uselessness of the reproduction of wind in the same direction, the same speed and at the exact same spot, just in an enclosed and isolated space . Like in a museum or a zoo the wind can be observed, but what can we learn from it? Is the wind an old relict that is worth to be presented in a museum? Or is the wind, like fish in a fishtank, something that needs to be kept alive? | In this installation wind is captured outdoors, then transmitted and reproduced in a hermetic like glass cube right underneath.

Furthermore, this installation will be split into two parts, so it can be presented in two different contexts. The first one is for public art, the wind is, as described above reproduced live and at the exact same spot. Then, the second part would be presented in a gallery or other indoor exhibition spaces like a museum. For this case the data from part one is written on an SD card and then in the gallery recalled and played on the fans. This would be the exact echo or memory of the wind that was once there, but isn' anymore. | Furthermore, this installation will be split into two parts, so it can be presented in two different contexts.
