Dolina
_
2013 / Mixed media, fabric, wood, plant, light / 40 L x 13 W x 13 H ft (12 x 4 x 4 m) / Installation view from Uncharted Gallery, Lowell, MA
"Dolina" draws inspiration from Hang Son Doong, the largest cave in the world found in Vietnam. Upon the installation, the plant structure is visible from the front window until the very end of their walk through a black fabric path, stretching throughout the whole gallery space from the entrance. The walk relies on the viewers' own navigation with the weight of the fabric pressing against their bodies. The view of the plant structure at the end of the tunnel is from a raised platform with a high vantage point looking down.
