plastic garden
Single Channel Video, 11 min, 12 sec
The Plastic Garden summons the ghost of a forgotten future, a total nuclear war, that held the world hostage half a century ago. Despite going out of fashion as a socio-political symbol, nuclear drama continues to haunt the world in various forms. Hacking and appropriating the video game Call of Duty: Black Ops, The Plastic Garden unravels a forgotten future that felt like an endless nightmare, or else a collective death wish that comes to define modern sociopolitical reality.
