Appearance of a Small Black Hole amidst a Swarm of Flies

Madam Takes a Leap
from the series «-- And I Built a Crooked Space»
(2022, 13 x 19, 3D photogrammetry CGI, pigment ink on glass, edition: 7 + 1 EA)
I was recently granted generous access to a Matterport and Facebook AI research dataset of about 1000 3D spaces. To date, I have reconstructed a random selection in Cinema 4D, created a short computer animation and a folio in progress entitled «— and I Build a Crooked Space».
The houses I investigated so far are all fully furnished, some tidy, some messy, littered with personal belongings, but I have yet to encounter a single human being. The people then, that appear in these pictures are imaginary. They may look like they live in these homes, but they're impostors.
An uncanniness pervades the deserted homes, the cause of abandonment, their histories and locations unknown and ripe with fictional potential. Thoughts of «Morel’s Invention», the book by Adolfo Bioy Casares or «Locus Solus» by Raymond Russel.
The almost cinematic atmosphere of suspense is heightened by the distorted geometry, reminiscent of cubist painting of the early 20th century in which perspective with a single viewpoint was abandoned and use was made of simple geometric shapes interlocking planes.
A nod to Robert A. Heinlein’s short story from 1941, the pictures are output as prints on paper or glass, simulating the look of etchings. Whereas conventional gravure depends on corrosives, I use light. I stopped the rendering after a certain time, ending up with a map of where the photons hit the surfaces.

Person Falling Down the Stairs
from the series «-- And I build a Crooked Space»
(2021, 13 x 19 inch, 3D photogrammetry CGI, pigment ink on fine art paper, edition: 7 + 1 EA)
Again, we are witnessing a person struggling with a set of stairs, this time, in a take on Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending a Staircase, in the midst of a fall. Did the man or woman slip, was he or she pushed, or even shot from behind?

The scenario created with thoughts of Alfred Hitchcock's «Vertigo», the title of the series a nod to Robert A. Heinlein’s short story «— And He Built a Crooked House» from 1941, where an architect builds a house that brings into play the fourth dimension.
Woman in a Houndstooth Suit Collapsed at the Bottom of the Stairs
from the series «-- And I Built a Crooked Space»
(2021, 13 x 19 inch, 3D photogrammetry CGI, pigment ink on glass, edition: 7 + 1 EA)
I consider stairs a place of transition, the ascent or descent bearing risk and vulnerability. In this image, we spot a woman in a houndstooth suit collapsed at the bottom of the stairs, raising the questions whether we're on a scene of crime or accident, whether we are witnesses or perpetrators.
