In Transit
offer a collection of daily life passges in ten parts. The visuals draw a
wide range of locations. Gathered in cities, nature settings, carnival, various
modes of public and private transport, they are sometimes ironically set to
the voiceovers. The texts are observations and reactions presented in either
a poetic or blunt manner. Amidst this travelogue of the times is a desire
to weigh situations and to make decisions based on individual needs and directions
in life.

Slices
of Life a videotape in five parts
1991 |

Basic
philosophies of life evolve and are defined through common place events. The
mind wanders when a person gets up in the morning to go to work. If the work
is of a solitary nature, a person has a lot of time to think. If there are co-workers
involved, the kinds of conversations that people engage in the workplace, reveal
a lot about personal value systems. People who don't work must find ways to
occupy their minds and even in what appears to be bored, mundane activity, philosophies
develop. The business of performing everyday chores and errands are also settings
for the development of the thought process.
