grip (2007)
for hollow polystyrene balls, masking tapes and weights
by serge baghdassarians
a huge number of hollow polystyrene balls are fastened with masking tape in several layers and installed under the ceiling. gravity attracts
the objects to the ground. what you will hear then is the very slow removing of the tape amplified by the hollow polystyrene balls. battery blocks
inside the balls increase the weight and accelerate the removing of the tape. they also produce sound by slipping within the center inside the ball.
duration: dependent on the height of the ceiling, approx. 2h
