Overview

“One of Our Fossils presents three sections of a space, each displaying a different composition of chicken bones. Viewers are greeted by a large installation in the first room, resembling both a wave and a time-travel tunnel—a dynamic and monumental form that leads into the next room, where several smaller, randomly placed monuments stand. The final room evokes a ritualistic atmosphere, with chicken bone compositions becoming smaller and more intricate. The arrangement of the rooms and the formalist shapes of the chicken bones project how future humans might attempt to trace back and understand the civilization of today. One of Our Fossils becomes a fascinating speculation on how humans strive to grasp the concept of space and time. What is space and time? What is the future, the present, and the past?”
