Electric Entity [Pelican] is a hybrid being. An art installation in physical space and a first-person, interactive environment. A space to walk through, a staged encounter with a multi-corporal entity, a room for human animals to think about non-human animals in the 21st century. The online version of Electric Entity [Pelican] is the translation of a physical art installation in the realm of the virtual and its subsequent mutation. It retraces the image worlds of those beings we awkwardly call animals' (Timothy Morton, 2019) - those joyfully multiplying in the form of digital proxies, and those, whose fleshly bodies are either rapidly decreasing in numbers or have already disappeared for good. Experiencing the sensation of movement while sitting still, stumbling upon boundaries and barriers. Animacy is inverted, as are the images that find their way back to you. Flawless digitally generated space lays bare raw footage. Allow yourself to be complicated among the many modes of existence, trapped in the human representational machine. A bodiless spectator complicit in a regime of capture. Filmed on location with permission of the London Zoo.
