"Public Sculptures", 2008, are little sculptures whose primary material is made up of found and gathered rubbish from the streets, arranged into new indefinable, abstract forms. These Forms, made of everyday life rubbish, are each cast two times in ceramics. These two identical sculptures become gold plated in pure gold. One of these sculptures will be left in a public space. It is placed on an arbitrary location, observed and secretly filmed till the moment when taken. What stays is the identical copy of the disappeared sculpture and a Video showing the Moment of disappearance from its equivalent.

»Zenith Alignments«. Using star tracking software, minor zenith alignments with celestial bodies were found to occur at multiple intervals throughout the course of the day over various locations. These precise locations were located via GPS. 3-point areas were located at sites of the zenith alignments. These areas were highlighted and clearings were made to coincide with the alignments. So at the moment of the alignment Damon Zucconi would be exposing the ground and aligning himself with the line that extends to the star. These specific alignments were unique to these specific locations, occurring once an annual cycle. This could largely be seen as the process of integrating himself with 90 degree angles, in turn, demarcating larger phenomenological alignments and relations: “the body mapped onto the land onto the heavens above.”
