The Green ray
Parkers Box
Brooklyn, NY
June 2005
exhibition description:
The artists were invited to make or propose works for this exhibition which took its title from the book by Jules Verne, who died 100 years ago this year. In the book (non-science fiction, Verne tells us) the Green Ray refers to an effect caused by the refraction of the rising sun, occurring over the sea in very clear conditions, and visible only to the pure in heart.
My contribution to the exhibition is the video Swansong that starts with sunset imagery and ends with ecstatic disorientation.
