Sky Disc, 2021 | 4K Video (color, silent), custom USB tassel | Dimensions variable | 10 min, loop

Sky Disc is a hypnotic work that engages recordings of the night sky as its source material. The video camera captures the sky's darkness in abstraction, producing unsmoothed elements of digital noise. Ludy revels in the rawness, positioning this texture as an artifact of ephemerality. An intuitive change occurs as the disc shifts from crisp noise into a soft color field. The subtlety of this act realigns perception as it mimes the focus of the camera.
