From ethnicities to nations (2001)

LED display; 140 x 10cm

Using the CIA Factbook as a source, From ethnicities to nations methodically takes every listed ethnicity to every listed nation. The streaming LED display would have to run for over four weeks at twenty-four hours a day before the cycle repeats.

This piece was shown in the exhibition Migration at Westspace Gallery in 2001, and an updated version was shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney in 2009.
