THE FALLING SKY

by Peggy AHWESH
2017 / HD / color / sound / 1S / 9' 30

Refashioning the intention of footage lifted from an online animated news outlet, THE FALLING SKY is a cautionary tale about human foibles increasingly out of alignment with the forces of nature. The bombardment 
of fragmentary information, discoveries, crises, gossip and opinion on a daily basis, forces we who are doomed to be ‘connected’ through technology through a slow drain of our subjectivity. The simple, hypnotic animations of the news from a YouTube database presents our collective prurient interests, fears and obsessions.
