This is Going Nowhere, 2005
video, 10 min, loop / no sound
The video depicts a quiet landscape scenery with stones, grass, flowers and a
partly clouded sky. In the middle of the field a crude sign reads “THIS IS
GOING NOWHERE”. The camera remains motionless, withholding the perspective of a
still, only the small movements of plants in the gentle breeze and the slow
alteration of clouds serve as evidence of time passing. Is there a story or
purpose to this? Does it mean anything? The questions arising come down to
this: Does it matter?
