A mise-en-sence of the moon was fabricated by concrete and moldings in an installation. A telescope stood in the corner with a spot-light on from the far corner of the room. A surreal situation was constructed in daily encounter. Through the viewfinder of the telescope, a video of the masterpiece of contemporary artwork, Richard Serra’s Hand Catching Lead (1968), could be seen. The video was played by one sixth of the original speed in accordance with the gravity of the moon where objects fall in such a pace, 1.66m/s2. The video was played in a loop and shorten to the sequence of the movement of grabbing and dropping that the meaning of video lost its original significant and narrative. Therefore, an absurd gaze was created in displacing art in the outer space, yet still kept it physical relation such as the distance from the Earth to the moon 3.85x108 m, the gravity 1.66 m/s2, and the speed 2.38 km/s. A line of flight from the banality of daily experience was brought forth in order to tell the intricate relation among art, the outer space, and the fantasy which mended the black hole of the reality
