Description: A five-screen HD video installation based on the elements of Eastern philosophy: Earth, Air, Wood, Water and Fire, in which the artist uses his body to physically engage each of the referenced elements.
Seen as obstacles that must be constantly challenged, these elements follow the photographic threads of Skarbakka’s continued investigation of the human body and its struggle to maintain equilibrium in an uncertain world.
