Speaker 0 00:00:00 This chapter will recite the extended label for end land. The holographic principle by Joel Toms. It is written by curator sunny Kerr. It is three minutes and 19 seconds long. There are labels on the walls of the gallery for each artwork, which includes biographical information of the artist, the title of the artwork, and what materials were used here is dual Tom's. Speaker 1 00:00:24 Joel Tom's born Toronto Ontario in 1981.

Speaker 1 00:01:47 The following is the extended label written by curator, Sonny cur Joel Tom's borrows, the imagery, materials, and strategies of physics composing them in an art context to probe the ecological ethics of our time. For example, borrowing a strategy from theoretical physicist. He plays with higher dimensions throughout his installation made explicit in his metal hypercube sculptures titled the bulk frameworks, the provocative flattening and layering of complex dimensional objects continues in his isomorphic prince in which he layers flattened 3d scans of snow lab experiments to expose gaps and hidden strata within scientific classification methodologies Tom's installation suggests a multi-dimensional view of the snow lab site, which he refers to as holographic reading context and agency through vast cosmic and geological timescales. The piece reflects on interconnected components of land. The comment that hit the location 1.85 billion years ago, and the resulting emergence of copper and nickel deposits within its rock. How the land is both a major mining site and the object of debated government treaties with indigenous peoples and how the rock itself isolate snow lab from the interference of surface radiation, so that experiments can search for rare cosmic particles. Speaker 0 00:03:21 This concludes the description of Joel Toms and land the holographic principle, move to the next artwork blank spots by Nadia lick tick and play chapter 12. When you arrive, the first stop for this artwork is located in another room in the gallery. Follow the path for 20 meters.
