once more around the sun

Solar is a series of 9 loops created for the Cycle Loop exhibitions at the Rotondes in Luxembourg. The projection space is an 10x2m screen over the bar, giving room for custom made animations and videos. The loop was first show in 2012, and was part of a group exhibition, along with all the loops created for the cycle, in summer 2019.

Solar represents a small solar system consisting of 3 orbiting planets and 1 star, in perpertual motion. The concept deals with the concept of time passing, essentially through taking the idea of a year (one rotation around the sun) and positioning this over the duration of a minute. It shows a cycle that goes on and on, despite particular events, like solar flares, meteor showers, eclipses..etc. It is an endlessly repetitive cycle, showing how things go on without any human interaction or even without any human presence.
