Heronsis hermnonicii
This is a web-based installation of Heronsis hermnonicii.
Warning: the following may contain tedious and/or glib
background and/or analysis.
Casting a negative space of knowledge. Calling itself a "plate" frames
it as a work of learning, like some kind of 19th-century anthropology text.
Yet it only raises questions — what are these entities? what kind of
world do they inhabit? what are they protecting? who is Clarkson?
— without providing answers, leaving it up to the observer to either
imagine their own answers, or decide that answers to these questions
are not necessary.
Plus it's fun to click on the red balls.
