The large coin is clad in black lead. Black lead is the softest form of carbon while diamond is the hardest. This material property loads the amplified sculpture of the coin with another freight of meaning.
 
On the face of it ‘Death of Distance’ isolates two specific found narratives and the emblematic form of the coin, to interrogate the specifics of a nation that lives many realities simultaneously. The more veiled intention of the work would be to probe the notion of perception and how the individual’s subject position defines a world-view,
subtly realized here, through the movement of the viewer’s body that makes the two distant worlds collide and penetrate each other.
