Hear Sea, See Sea, Cease Here, 2014

video 5:50 min, sound

In a structural experiment, the artist is exploring the relation of still photographs and running recordings of the sound of the sea. The first edition of an ongoing series turns to the far east coast of the Mediterranean sea in Tel Aviv, Israel. The sound of the waves form the basis of an incessant sound, punctuated by the clicking of the camera. Shoot and reload rhythmically parallel the hitting waves and the ebb of the water at the coast. The seemingly endless repetition drones on the borders of monotony, allowing the imagination to gather around this very basic setting of cinematographic exercise and the composition and re-composition of memory and place.
