De:Struct is a piece made specifically for the 2019 Gertrude Street Projection Festival. This video is a demonstration of what is happening behind the scenes of that project. I originally created a miniature Gertrude Street to demonstrate how my piece would look projected. I then made that demo into the actual projected work by hiding the buildings but still allowing the gold chunks to interact with the world model.

“Dismantlement is the central concept that inspires Matt Daly’s work. De:struct is an expression of the narrative surrounding institutional change by way of dismantling imposed structures. For better or worse, what remains will always serve as the foundation for what is to come. This process is cyclical and each time it occurs, history is made. It layers on what came before it and sets the direction for what is to come.”
