Semiconductor make moving image works which reveal our physical world in flux; cities in motion, shifting landscapes and systems in chaos. Since 1999 UK artists Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt have worked with digital animation to transcend the constraints of time, scale and natural forces, they explore the world beyond human experience questioning our very existence. Their award winning work has been exhibited extensively from Tate Britain and ICA London to the San Francisco Film Festival, Mutek Montreal and the Venice Biennale.
Earth Moves is a continuation of Semiconductors exploration into how unseen forces affect the fabric of our world. The limits of human perception are exposed, revealing a world which is unstable and in a constant state of animation as the forces of acoustic waves come into play on our surroundings.
Earth Moves is an Arts Council England commission and is permanently installed at the South East offices, Brighton, UK. The three screen version of Earthmoves was commissioned by Lovebytes, UK.
This is an excerpt of Semiconductor's "Earthmoves".
