Harry, Zelda and Antoinette, 2005
The work consists of six parts, each composed of some twelve to twenty multi-screen films. You can see it here not composed or compiled as one film but where each film plays simultaneously as a discrete file, one next to the other, cycling through each audio track, one after the other, until finished and the next set of images play. This modality distinct from what you see on your right where the film clip is composited as one film, one file.
It is a study for Zanzibar, an illusive place where everything is as it seems, and narrative is a performed event. It explores metaphor for the illumination of reality (and unreality) in our desires, longings and fears. Two brothers, one an intellectual, the other, a man of appetite. Two wives, an artist and a madame. Three children - one shared between them. Each character in love and in search of beauty and ideals.
