              The artist is suspended in the air in the midst of a grove of trees, spouting water in the form of a human fountain. The video is meant to trigger various interpretations: lawn-sprinkler, black pinata having sprung many leaks, ninja, woodland creature, or sacrificial performance, all of which are informed by the context in which the action takes place.

              Security Guards
              ES ES-OVNI RSC-3294 · Item · 2008
              Part of Non-Identified Video Observatory (OVNI)

              Security Guards is a short documentary shot on location at the Jeu de Paume. The film shows this prestigious Parisian contemporary art centre through the eyes of the security guards. Questioning the role of art in society, the film connects the political context of Paris today with the rising tension between the Sarkozy administration and issues around immigration within an elitist French, white, bourgeois art world.

              She was Cuba
              ES ES-OVNI CTX-S010-SS007-0062 · Item · 2003
              Part of Non-Identified Video Observatory (OVNI)

              Using the 1964 Russian-Cuban classic film I Am Cuba as its starting point, She Was Cuba explores the nature of memory, the time passed and its remains. The film is made up of two stories. The first traces the life and death of a Cuban woman, Ada Perez Esquivel, who fled to seek political asylum in Canada. It is the tale of a woman of colour in exile, and her search for freedom, love and acceptance. The heroine symbolizes Cuba the country as well as those who have left their native land for a new home elsewhere.
