HelioTrope is a multichannel moving image and sound installation that uses digital breakage to create an image that is consumed by itself. It is full of inversions - a sun (sign) that absorbs as well as emits, a mythologized but recognizable world full of unsettling and dreamlike solar imagery and a strobing city at night illuminated by dark light. HelioTrope is a metabolic sci-fi/horror that works on the senses. Inspired by recurring themes of haunted media in popular film and television, the work is self-reflexive of its own tropic nature and is grounded in histories of telecommunications technology and paranormal phenomena.
