See / Saw is an interactive installation in which visitors'
manipulations of a real see-saw control the fluctuation of power
and emotion in the story of an intimate relationship. A pair of
words are projected on the walls behind each person on the see-saw
- one word from each pair on the wall behind each person. As visitors
see-saw up and down, new pairs fade in and out based on the angle
of the see-saw. Participants' motion also causes an audio track
heard through speakers embedded in the see-saw to advance. When
participants stop the see-saw moving, the audio fragments into an
up and down segment heard by the up and down
participant respectively. The audio clips relate to the projected
word that each person can see, and the up or down
position in the narrated relationship. This piece along with Come
to Pieces - an interactive video portrait, were created during
Chapman and Utterback's month long artist residency at Grand Central
Art Center in August 2001
