Watch Video documentation of the piece Metal, by Eva Lootz Movies Online Free on Cineb. – Metal is a circular sculpture, measuring 3 metres in diameter. Mercury is poured upon its base until the whole surface is covered in a layer of the metal, the thickness of which is established on the cohesiveness of the mercury itself, the liquid with the greatest surface tension. Once poured, the metal acts like a skin that picks up vibrations from the ground and the air while a spotlight transfers these surface waves onto the wall making them visible. The whole piece is simply supported to show the properties of the material.
