Artist Statement:

Clouds Fall is a series of virtual tableaux, a speculative portrait of violence and its aftermath at the end of time. Together with Another Day of Depression in Kowloon (2012) and The Plastic Garden (2013), Clouds Fall forms a trilogy created using hacked and reworked materials from the video game franchise Call of Duty. The work attempts to unearth hidden poetics while creating parallels through a kind of uncanny observation and navigation in the found virtual landscapes.
