GO #2, Salt, water, shotgun shell, dimensions various


 

GO #2 is the second installation inspired by the ancient Chinese "Game of Encirclement", the game of territory control. Contrary to GO #1, which adheres to the rigid 19 by 19 grid, GO #2 takes on an organic form. Clusters of red shotgun shells oozing of white crystals rush toward the cement column, surrounding it, as if attempting to take it over. No longer a mere architectural element, the column is embraced as the center piece/target of the "encirclement".
