Eye Blinking

It is actually part of an installation: an 11 foot square video projecting the artist's eye, along with a two-ton wrecking ball resting on the ground. The ball should hit a wall for destruction; the wall is excluded from the installation; it remains the terrible sound of hitting, and each time the ball hits, the eye blinks.

The impression it gives is that each time the eye blinks, a cosmic thud is produced.

The author is Janine Antoni. The installation is on view at Luhring Augustine Gallery, on the 24th Street in Manhattan.
