open teaser
Created after an artistic residency held in Iceland, the video presents in three simultaneous frames different forms of interaction with a stone. As a search for meaning in an inhospitable scenario, marked by isolation, the work seeks to portray a path of acceptance – whether of what we don’t understand or what we simply cannot control.
