SPAIN•PONG
Customized table-tennis video installation artwork.
December, 2014.
“SPAIN-PONG” is a video performance carried out with a racquet and hundreds of ping pong balls against a white wall. As the outline of Spain is built up, there are several “rebounds” and “quirks” in the geographic and territorial game. Where the ball has hit the wall- following a recognisable outline- is where it is finally fixed. Nevertheless, the balls that land outside the screen constitute “bridges” or “supports” for the baseline of the relief of the drawing and the whole sculpture. A playful dialogue is therefore established between the player (or drawer) and his gesture of political representation.
