31 Cubes

31, π x π x π, cubes aligned, π distanced from each other by Moshe Vollach A long row of, 61 identical-size cubes, is stretched toward the horizon, composing a string of: matter cube – space cube – matter cube – space cube…. The cubes are made of ice, placed in the desert on a hot summer day on June 2016. The defrosting process is documented, from the air and from the ground, using 5 stills cameras in time-lapse mode. When the process is complete, a row of 61 identical cubes remains: space cube – space cube – space cube – space cube…. The art-work refers to the relationship between matter and space in the field of art in general and Sculpture in particular. The project accentuates – formative, climatic, physical, mathematical and geomorphologic - contrasts. This land-art project discusses: global warming, radical climate changes, icebergs defrosting and desertification.
