"Juggler"
1997
Gregory BARSAMIAN
ICC Collection
|
 |
A work commissioned by ICC, this acrobat single-mindedly continues to juggle with a telephone receiver that in the air transforms into a nursing bottle, milk, a dice, and a bone, before gliding down on a parachute back into the juggler's hand. The sensation of movement is achieved by arranging several units around a rotating cylindrical construction and using flashing strobe lights. Making visible things that don't exist, the overlapping of time and space creates an illusion of the juggler breaking free from the construction he is attached to. Once again BARSAMIAN explores aspects of expectation and conflict between man and machine - a central theme in the artist's work.
