Hyperbaric / Hypobaric, 2008
(2006 - 2008)
Including images of the various sculptural elements in the installation Hyperbaric–Hypobaric, the edition also includes a large technical drawing of the project’s composite atmospheric suit, shown in a historical context indicating the development of pressure-resistant suits. These suits are a key element in preventing loss of consciousness as a result of hypoxia in two states, hyperbaric (leading to anxiety) and hypobaric (leading to euphoria).
