Samuel Stewart · 2056

2056

Seventh Gallery
Collingwood, Australia 2008

Projection
2800mm × 2000mm

2056 is a computer program counting down to the year 2056, the expected year of death of the artist based on predicted life-expectancy. Originally exhibited as a projection, the huge numbers confronted the viewer with the simple truth that we are all slowly dying.
