The Politics of Alignment II
The Politics of Alignment II explores ‘multiplicity’ as a visual concept. It visualizes the relationships between the following words: left, right, top, bottom, margin, and center and their positions in space. When the words are animated and aligned in various orientations, multiple metaphorical narratives are created to be interpreted.
