Burning Mona Lisa
Video to express my passionate hatred towards art. "Art for people who hate art." I made this piece specifically for the "Instillative Collective" at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, October 2005. This is my post-hostumus collaboration with Da Vinci. I created a 13 minute loop of this ambient sequence, burning 10 black and white reproductions of the Mona Lisa. I reversed the video direction and set it in slow motion to bring inspiration out of the fire and ashes. This is an insult and a compliment, destructive and hopeful.
