Porthole
Single-channel video loop and assemblage. 5'8" h, 2004

A seductive image of shimmering light reflected on the water through the portholes of a fishing boat.  A recording device draws a sine wave analogous to the wave motion that rocks the boat.  Through repetition over a long period of time it obliterates the paper image of the boat and becomes itself unintelligible.  Memory self-destructs.
