In the current motion towards hyper-visibility, SUB · RS investigates fascination exerted by the invisible. The passenger shuttle is launched from the D02.2 spacecraft towards the earth, closing in on us, zooming into the body reimagined as exhibition site. Inspired by the iconic moving image work Powers of Ten, the authority of exponential powers as modes of visualisation are questioned. A world reveals other worlds. Reflecting on exploration ventures — such as submersion in the deepest terrestrial point: the Mariana Trench — the works are staged inside ‘cells’ that float in a liquid, causing a sense of interspatial disorientation.
