TREVOR PAGLEN - Protocinema, Istanbul - September 12 - October 25, 2013
“Developed in conversation with aerospace engineers, Prototype for a Nonfunctional Satellite (Design 4; Build 3) is a sculpture designed to be placed into low-earth orbit and reflect sunlight from space down to the earth’s surface. Once launched it would appear as a bright point of light slowly moving across the sky over several months, before burning up in the atmosphere. This spacecraft-cum-art object combines maximum reflectivity with minimum weight, taking the shape of a giant mirror-like sphere.”
