The work on the ‚Pacific Ring of Fire‘ can be seen as a further development of the ‚Iceland Project‘ While in Iceland the laser beam follows the shape of a mountain ridge rising where the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate meet, in Patagonia mathematical calculations mark the geological interface between the South American and Antarctic Plates, as above-ground elevations are invisible in this location. This boundary, invisible to humans, is briefly made visible through the laser drawings. The light imparts a sculptural modulation to the landscape: a place where something ends and something else has not yet begun, with a line of incompatibility in between. The artist is literally treading on „thin ice.“ Conducting the expedition with a small crew on a small ship was very daring, and the time available for the photographs was very short: before nightfall. The impressive photographs of the glacier formations and the ice shelf were taken from opposite icebergs, which had to be climbed for this purpose.
