I Shall be Late!

I Shall be Late!

Three videos played simultaneously within an installation made out of stained glass, accompanied by sound and by text. 

In the old tale of Alice in Wonderland, Alice follows a white rabbit out of curiosity to its rabbit hole. Eventually Alice falls into the rabbit hole and ends up into an absurd dream world. Today, ‘rabbit holes’ describe virtual spaces designed to captivate and hold our attention, drawing us in with constant, rapid stimuli. Like their namesake, they pull us deeper, blurring our sense of time and making it harder to disconnect. 

The way a rabbit hole behaves reminded Adèle Sweetlove of the motion-sensor light in her apartment haway. In most of these buildings there’s a light that activates when we enter a room, responding to our movement and presence in the space. The light stays on as long as we’re moving, fading only when we leave the room.
