Ocean
Without a Shore
Chiesa di San Gallo, Venice
“The
Self is an ocean without a shore. Gazing upon it has no
beginning or end, in this world and the next.”
Ibn al’Arabi (1165 – 1240)
Ocean
Without a Shore is about the presence of the dead in our
lives. The three stone altars in the church of San Gallo
become portals for the passage of the dead to and from our
world. Presented as a series of encounters at the intersection
between life and death, the video sequence documents a succession
of individuals slowly approaching out of darkness and moving
into the light. Each person must then breakthrough an invisible
threshold of water and light in order to pass into the physical
world. Once incarnate however, all beings realize that their
presence is finite and so they must eventually turn away
from material existence to return from where they came. The
cycle repeats without end.
The work was inspired by a poem by the 20th century Senegalese poet and storyteller
Birago Diop:
“ Hearing things more than beings,
listening to the voice of fire,
the voice of water.
Hearing in wind the weeping bushes,
sighs of our forefathers.
The dead are never gone:
they are in the shadows.
The dead are not in earth:
they’re in the rustling tree,
the groaning wood,
water that runs,
water that sleeps;
they’re in the hut, in the crowd,
the dead are not dead.
The dead are never gone,
they’re in the breast of a woman,
they’re in the crying of a child,
in the flaming torch.
The dead are not in the earth:
they’re in the dying fire,
the weeping grasses,
whimpering rocks,
they’re in the forest, they’re in the house,
the dead are not dead.”
(from David Melzter, ed. Death - An Anthology of Ancient Texts, Songs, Prayers
and Stories (San Francisco: North Point Press, 1984)
The new work is jointly presented by galleries Haunch
of Venison London, James
Cohan Gallery, New York and Kukje
Gallery, Seoul.

"46664" screening at Basel Art Fair, Switzerland
46664 was the prison number
of Nelson Mandela on Robben Island, Cape Town where he was held in
captivity for 18 years. He was the 466th prisoner to be incarcerated
on the island in 1964. In November 2002, Mr Mandela gave his prison
number 46664 to Dave Stewart of Eurythmics so that he could use it
to help in the fight against HIV/AIDS in South Africa by raising money
for the Nelson Mandela Foundation.
46664 - 1 Minute of Art to AIDS features on the specially commissioned Double DVD
and premieres the creations of todayÊs leading contemporary artists,
all of whom have created a one-minute video in response to the HIV/AIDS
pandemic currently inflicting Africa. Each artist has used only
non-documentary techniques to convey the message of the 46664 campaign
through the universal language of art. Hopefully the metaphors that
the artists employ reach across cultural and religious barriers
to touch the hearts and engage the minds around the world.
