The Boggy Gassy Line is a drawing/sculpture in progress. It consists of a line of punch-holed paper dots, pin-pricked and threaded to form a delicate white line that stretches from the floor to the ceiling of the exhibition space. The line translates a continuous data stream from an agri-sensor network monitoring a degraded peatland in the Cambrian Mountains, West Wales. Thousands of white punch-holes embody the digits of the data emitted in a day; after 5,376 dots, a single black hole appears, marking the close of one day and the beginning of the next.
The work renders raw environmental data as a precarious, thin, fluid line: a delicate accumulation of threaded, perforated paper.
