Parallel Lines (and many other names), 2026
single-channel color HD video projection;
4-channel sound, audio
transducers, speaker; 1 × 4 lumber,
drywall, gauze, orange peels, paint
21 x 33 3/4 x 5 3/4 in
Four channels of sound and a film of different lengths begin together and loop independently, returning to their original alignment only once every 18 days.
...
The film has many other names, but for now
it is a didactic one, Parallel Lines, to
let you know that all the strands of it-–
image, sound, voice, music, pictures––are
their own lines moving forth and looping at
a pace of their own. Yet of course they are
held together by the medium of time and
context (/room/, your feelings not mine,
san francisco, breath), for which your
experience of the work is offered through.
And so it is fine, if not more ideal, to
see the film only in a glimpse of your
periphery or with your eyes closed or by
only reading this text. You are not missing
out since no one will see the same thing
twice.
