Shadow (for Heisenberg)

The installation consists of a statue of a Buddha sitting on a piece of paper with text on it. Both are positioned in a glass cube on a pedestal; lights set inside the cube illuminate the statue. When a person walks toward the pedestal the glass cube fogs up, gradually obscuring the Buddha and the paper. The closer the spectator gets to the statue the more the glass fogs, and the shadow becomes clearer.
