Description
“Fictional Archaeology” is Daniel’s tenth project in his longstanding partnership with Galerie Perrotin. Daniel explains that his inspiration drew from the mummified persons solidified in ash from the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Appropriately the models are cast using a mixture of crystal, selenite and volcanic ash. The objects presented are familiar — cameras, sneakers, basketballs — but all are frozen in stasis. They appear as remnants of an obsolete civilization.
