Description

Haystacks (2022) is an open edition of still images from a constantly evolving, interactive artwork by Leander Herzog in collaboration with playrecordmint for the exhibition DYOR at Kunsthalle Zürich. Data from a computer vision system is drawn onto the digital canvas, generating a dense composition that reflects the patterns of visitors’ movements. Haystacks creates a visual manifestation of the audience - the bodies - that pass physically in front of the interactive work. The marks then dissolve into a painterly surface texture enabled by the medium’s pixellation. The direct transfer of motion to marks on a surface is inspired by Rudolf Stingel’s works with metallic Celotex insulation panels: by inviting viewers to make their own marks on the surfaces, he removes artistic privilege from the individual and hands it over to the collective. playrecordmint.xyz is a screen and sensor setup that allows artists to invite an audience on site to co-author animated sequences or still images within an artwork, which they can then mint as a NFT. playrecordmint partners with artists to conduct interactive experiments, bridging physically embodied interaction and the creation of digital artifacts on the blockchain.
