The
terrain of Mount Fear is generated by data sets relating to the
frequency and position of urban crimes. Precise statistics are provided
by the police. Each individual incident adds to the height of the model,
forming a mountainous terrain. |
All
Mount Fear models are built on the same principals. The imaginative fantasy
space seemingly proposed by the scupture is subverted by the hard facts
and logic of the criteria that shape it. The object does not describe
an ideal other-worldly space separated from lived reality, but conversely
describes in relentless detail the actuality of life on the city streets.
