"Throughout
the exhibition space are sixteen small bare audio speakers mounted
on metal stands. The lighting is low. From each speaker a female
voice is heard, sometimes conversing with another, describing events
or actions from various viewpoints; observational, experiential,
past, present, or future, in twenty to forty second segments. Each
speaker plays a different dialogue. The story is unraveled by the
way the listener moves from speaker to speaker through the space.
Breaking into the atmosphere of quiet voices is an image projected
onto the wall from a l6mm film projector. A film loop of a girl tap-dancing
in the forest plays for 30 seconds and then shuts off."
