2014 / Offshoring Pathways

Posted on: 21/07/2014 Last updated on: 20/08/2025 Written by: Michelle Letelier Categorized in: Works

Offshoring Pathways is an installation that, through a chemical method and a crystallisation process, shows the energy configuration of the saltpetre zeitgeist: the sea-spray oxidation, the ripples left on the ocean surface by the wind vessels wake, the wind force over the ocean, the power of the sodium nitrate chemical bonds between science, warfare and agriculture, and the importance that these elements have had since the 19th century.

This piece includes a small sculptural wind turbine, in order to provide the required electricity.
