This video is also on the NOWNESS website HERE. Currently you can view this video on the Little Sun website HERE. This 4 minute version produced with the support of Olafur Eliasson and his NGO Little Sun. Please email us at if you are an artist (broad definition) who represents a nation that is not yet represented in this project, and you would like to contribute a video of the sun at the end of the day to become part of Aligned by the Sun.Ī short film (4 Minutes) titled Aligned by the Sun. Aligned by the Sun invites viewers to imagine a future charted by this fact. ![]() As borders have shifted, one truth has remained constant: we inhabit a single planet that is sustained by the light and warmth of the sun. Across history, humans have drawn and redrawn lines on this earth. The un-finishability of Aligned by the Sun reflects the arbitrary and incomplete nature of borders. This collaborative and artwork is ongoing artists whose home geographies are yet unrepresented in the project are invited to submit their own videos, which we will incorporate into the project on a rolling basis, with the expectation that the project will never really be complete. This work is intended to spark a dialogue about equality, location, migration, and the environment. ![]() Then we have taken those clips to make large installations, video collages, and still image composites. We are collaborating with artists from each of the 193 UN member countries, as well non UN member nations and territories in the world by asking them to capture a short video of the sun. Our video and installation based project Aligned by the Sun, seeks to unify our fractured planet. In a time of travel bans, persecution, climate change, and a global pandemic, we are working on a project that brings hope into a collective experience.
