Sink

00:04:46 2008

Sink is a soccer team drowning in time and circumstance.

Sink is a hand-picked team of soccer figurines stuck in heightened and suspended play. Placed upright in a stainless steel trough, water starts to fill up around them, gradually disturbing their hexagonal formation and team spirit. As the figurines succumb to the pressure of submergence, they cling hopelessly to each other until the final siren brings them to rest.
