CIRCULAR ERROR PROBABLE stages a series of aerial drops using balloons filled with dark red pigment. A performer in pale workwear and a protective helmet stands in different outdoor locations. Two channels place an aerial view alongside a ground-level view of the waiting body.
Responding to the circulation of drone -strike footage on social media, the work borrows the visual language of targeting and assessment. Crosshairs, coordinates and status indicators frame each action as a technical procedure. Waiting, deviation and the distribution of pigment complicate the apparent precision of this interface.
