About the Artwork

50°24'30.9"N 5°07'47.2"W is based on the interpretation and manipulation of raw sewage discharge data provided by Surfers Against Sewage to act as an expounding interface between science and art, presenting data as a symbolic visual form. The use of data in this context acts as a means of provocation, a shift from empirical representations of pragmatism into an emotive aesthetic form.

50°24'30.9"N 5°07'47.2"W utilizes environmental data to drive an analogue kinetic sculptural form. 50°24'30.9"N 5°07'47.2"W blends creativity with information, translating abstract data into an accessible, emotive experience. By questioning conventional perspectives, the work fosters an awareness of humanity's intertwined relationship with the environment, prompting viewers to reflect on the impact of distant events. The sculpture bridges technology and artistic expression, encouraging dialogue about data's power in shaping perception and interaction with the natural world.
