Sand on Table as Model of "Self-Organising Criticality". 1992-2013
Table, sand and diagrams
Gabriel Orozco explores the creative associations between overlooked objects in today’s world, deliberately blurring the boundaries separating artwork and everyday environment. In this work, Orozco re-creates an image from his own 1992 photograph, using elements found in Sharjah. Accompanying texts and diagrams explain the theory of self-organising criticality.
