Tick 2008
Steel, electric motor, motion sensor
50cm x 50cm x 15cm
TICK was installed at Untitled Spaces, a small gallery space in a residential window facing out onto the street. When a passer-by walked along the street, TICK would begin to move, its sound audible from the footpath. As the motor rotated, the 'claw' would push TICK away from the window. As the 'claw' continued its rotation, TICK would bounce back and hit the window. Over the course of the exhibition, a large, curved scratch developed on the window pane.
