Aligned by the Sun
In a time of travel bans, persecution, climate change, and a global pandemic, we are working on a project that brings hope into a collective experience. Our video-based project Aligned by the Sun, seeks to unify our fractured planet. We are collaborating with artists from each of the 195 UN countries, as well non UN member nations and territories in the world by asking them to capture a short video of the sun. Then we have taken those clips to make large installations, video collages, and still image composites.
This work is intended to spark a dialogue about equality, location, migration, and the environment.
This collaborative and artwork is ongoing; artists whose home geographies are yet unrepresented in the project are invited to submit their own videos, which we will incorporate into the project on a rolling basis, with the expectation that the project will never really be complete. The un-finishability of Aligned by the Sun reflects the arbitrary and incomplete nature of borders. Across history, humans have drawn and redrawn lines on this earth. As borders have shifted, one truth has remained constant: we inhabit a single planet that is sustained by the light and warmth of the sun. Aligned by the Sun invites viewers to imagine a future charted by this fact.
Please email us at studio@ghostofadream.com if you represent a nation that is not yet represented in this project, and you would like to contribute a video of the sun at the end of the day to become part of Aligned by the Sun.
Pictured here is a map from our studio that we have been filling in as we receive videos. Of the UN nations we are still looking to connect with artists in Guinea, Kiribati, MarshallIslands, Maldives, Niger, Tuvalu and Vanuatu.
Thus far we have completed
a short film (4 Minutes) titled Aligned by the Sun. This 4 minute version produced with the support of Olafur Eliasson and his NGO Little Sun. Currently you can view this video on the Little Sun website HERE. This video is also on the NOWNESS website HERE. (A current list of participants and people who helped us connect to these artists are at the bottom of this page)
A 7 channel installation video connecting all the captures of the sun by their horizon titled through the revolution. An iteration of through the revolution is on view at the Ackland Museum in Chapel Hill, NC though July 2022. More venues to see this version will be coming soon. (credits below)
A series of still images made from layering each image of the sun compositing images from over 220 nation titled a revolution.
So far there are 3 images, a revolution I, II, and III, and they are being sold by Little Sun on Artsy here. Proceeds from sales benefit their impact work in agriculture, education & health.
We are currently editing-
A 24 hour screenable version that follows the sun as the earth rotates, as well as a single channel feature length video for exhibition and screening.
