Swing

With this work, Katy Unger blends fantasy and reality to blur the line between nature as a place of leisure and the rapidly changing weather patterns that result from human inaction to climate change. The individual on the swing sways back and forth on a continuous loop, oblivious to the passing of time and the changing elements he oscillates through. The pendulum creaks with each forward and backward motion - a subtle reminder of its impermanence and the weight that our passivity carries.
