Hydrangea 1
J. G. Biberkopf, Holly Childs
Hydrangea is a bloom of distributed and interlocking works by Holly Childs and J. G. Biberkopf.
The gravity shifts
Flash [bulb flash sound]
The gravity shifts again
White phosphorus burst
Architecture for solving problems
And it’s her body
2-step verification,
And we can’t get up for now
The structure keels
90 degrees like a ride
Groaning
Start taking on water
