CHAOTIC SWING

“Chaos might be the origin of life on earth”

Most likely chaos is has resulted in the forming of the first complex molecules that created life on earth. Now we experience chaos as an unwanted status which should be avoided.

The kinetic installation Chaotic Swing comprises two linked pendulums that constantly influence each other, through which the total movement becomes unpredictable and therefore chaotic.
