Description

For five days, the artists ran on a grass lawn in a looped path shaped like an infinity symbol. They took photos in one-second intervals and edited them together to create a time-lapse video which gradually reveals the treaded infinity-shaped path on the lawn.

"Paths are made by walking"

In the fast-forward movie compiled from digital photographs taken one per second, a path the shape of ∞ (infinity) gradually emerges as they move with high-speed.
