Georgic for a Forgotten Planet

(11 min., video, 2008)  

I began reading Virgil’s Georgics, a 1st Century epic agricultural poem,  and knew immediately that I needed to create a visual equivalent about my own relationship to the place where I live, New York City.  Culled from material I collected at Coney Island, the Lower East Side, Socrates Sculpture Garden in Queens, a Brooklyn community garden and a place on Staten Island that is so dark you can see the three moons of Jupiter.  An homage to a place many people affectionately and mysteriously call the big apple.   Palais de Glace, Museo National de Artes Buenos Aires; Museo Nacional de Artes, Uruguay; Howl Festival of Art, New York; Monkeytown, Brooklyn; Black Maria Film Fest Award, Director’s Choice; Athens Film Festival.
