LINE DO NOT CROSS

'... LINE DO NOT CROSS', is a 5 Channel Video Installation, projected onto the 4 walls and floor of an enclosed room. Video of police tape that has been 'crossed' is projected onto 3 of the 4 walls. The tape dances in the wind, oblivious to the damage done. The floor projection comprises piled-up dolls, illuminated partially by a roving spotlight. The dragged 'people', on the back wall, remind us of those who 'disappear', and those who continue to sacrifice for the 'greater good'. Despairing though not without hope, the installation recalls images of death and loss from acts of war across time, to evoke a response to present circumstances.
