BOTH

2 SCREEN VIDEO (LOOPED) 2003

This infinitely looped masked-edit film superimposes man and woman over a cosmic disturbance, an intrusion of the abject into the sleep cycle. The primordial ooze of remote consciousness embeds our isolated dreamers. It infests each with erotic yearning. However the slithering eel insinuates or the flapping fish both dares and eludes capture, their ancient injunctions for coupling jolt our amnesia again and again. In this earthly round we are condemned, even in sleep, to a profound restlessness born of separation.
