Biba Non Biba

  This whirling dance tape is a visual odyssey from Beirut to Berlin, a woman’s story set in the oppressive civil fragmentation of two divided cities where images of destruction and reconstruction are intermingled. A cutting edge poetic short, that maps out the roots of inner and outer landscapes. Biba Non Biba is a powerful visual and sonic plea for change that is inclusionary not exclusionary.

Chess
ES ES-OVNI CTX-S005-SS002-0017 · Item · 1997
Part of Non-Identified Video Observatory (OVNI)

The video shows two men playing chess; Radovan Karadzic and Radco Mladic, the psychiatrist and the general. Silence is interrupted by a voice with a heavy accent. Karadzic is a psychiatrist, a poet and the former Bosnian Serb leader. Mladic is a general and the former commander of the Bosnian Serb Army. The two men together are accused of having designed and ordered most of the atrocities that took place in Bosnia. The video juxtaposes classic war strategy, greed and vanity with consequences in reality by suggesting horror through denial.

Annotations for a Work in Progress... In November 1994 I traveled from New York to Barcelona hoping to retain support film in what remained of the original Chinatown. One could say that at the time of my arrival in the neighborhood, this started to disappear. Currently it is being demolished and transformed following a massive urban redevelopment plan. Decline and future life, memory and oblivion: entropy as history.
