Free admission. An articulated aluminum deer skeleton stands motionless on a platform, when activated by a sensor the skeleton begins to shiver in a frantic, random motion. Using industrial materials and rudimentry mechanical movements Vickerd fashions a dramatic experience that offers a compellingly understated commentary on the anxiety experienced when confronted by representations of either nature or technology.
