DESCRIPTION

In a woods, Maya walks in circles, attempting to follow the same path through the vegetation. Around the area she walks, three cameras follow her track. Above the site, GPS satellites turn in orbit around the earth. As she proceeds, she relays her position to the satellites flying over the forest. The satellites, in turn, transmit the coordinates to the cameras, which automatically focus on her direction, following her track in the vegetation maze. Despite the apparent objectivity of the system, the images that emerge from it are unpredictable, erratic, labyrinthine, alternating between localization and loss, camouflage and exposure.
