Beautiful, ordinary, but still beautiful, fucking beautiful. 2010
Three-channel video installation, plaster ogee, sunken lights
Casting an ironic gaze upon banal events - the passage of a ship by an island in icy seas, passersby milling about a city, a large tanker emerging from the fog - , this work reveals natural, social, and political landscapes.
