Rock Climbing (2021)
A project by Ellen Oliver, Katie Phelan, and Molly Watt for Installations & Interactive Performance
Art Building West, The University of Iowa
This project utilizes the embodied movement of rock climbing to showcase climbing experiences for viewers. By using film and projection, this work transposes virtual reality onto physical space and structures. We invite spectators to interact with the installation through the choice making of projected climbing sequences. Spectators are invited to click on four different buttons – green, yellow, purple, and orange to view the installation.
