Du creates a large scale figure-eight installation called The End has no End... The installation uses a computer to control 60 LCD monitors which are attached to the steel frame. The piece depicts people from different cultures crawling on the ground in slow motion. The audience can reverse the direction of the figures' movements by clapping their hands or by using their voices. Once the interaction stops, the figures resume their original flow of movement. Here lies the thinking behind the work : if self-determination is already micromanaged, the desire to intervene in such a monotonous process would only meet an inevitable marching forward - such is the brutality of today's world.
