Video - Art Projects - Derelict

Architecture represents, to some, humanity's triumph over nature. Dereliction is nature's way of reminding humanity that they are not as all-powerful as they might imagine, in its reclamation of their sterile monuments. This video shows the old Mechanics Institute in Swindon at the depth of its decay.

AV production & music by Andy Preston.
Video camera by Sarah Checksfield.
Music recorded live at The Victoria, Swindon, 16 May 2005.
