He Often Dreamt of the Ocean
2010
Multi media, bed springs, video projector, white noise generator
This work was installed in an old abandoned property next to the ocean in Massachusetts. The bedroom window overlooked the ocean. On the pillow is projected an ultra slow motion video of waves breaking from a viewpoint of under the water. On the brick night stand was a white noise generator that created wave sounds. I believe surroundings can absorb our energy and experiences. The long since moved on person who slept in this bed often had dreams of the ocean and those images were absorbed by this now forgotten bedroom.
