Rocks & Fortresses

Photographs, earth, shells, postcards and 20”03’ looped sound.

“He wasn’t really from anywhere. You might say he was a sailor. He was in a little boat just off Gibraltar when we saw him from the yacht. He was making distress signals. We picked him up. That was how it started. He’d deserted from the Foreign Legion three days before. He’d escaped in a rowing boat. He’d stolen it. He was wanted by the police, for murder.

Am I looking for someone?”

Extract from looped monologue, adapted from a text by Marguerite Duras.
