S' FEAR, 2009,
6 feet diameter, Steel, Digital cd player and speakers, Price on Request
KALTENBACH ANNOTATIONS: This work is a steel sphere six feet in diameter. The narrative is that this container has a vacuum drawn in it. The reference is to fear as that hollow feeling in the pit of the stomach. To represent this extreme emptiness in the sphere I used the sounds of steel being compressed and crushed by the pressure differential as heard on the soundtracks of countless submarine movies. This vast emptiness is an actual sensation that fear causes. I have experienced it so clearly that I have even had adequate thought space to notice it and think about it as it was happening.
