‘The River was Dammed to Form a Lake’ (2019) by Marco Miehling
If you didn’t make it to The Art Block at Selfridges London in 2019, then you can still experience the power of Marco Miehling’s art with this specially commissioned video piece. The video, which was filmed in the woodlands of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, depicts a series of performative explorations into the threshold between the physical and non-physical. Drawing on familiar materials and themes in Miehling’s installations – suspension, tension and the natural world – the work depicts an ongoing condition of movement and resistance.
