The 1st part of the 2nd half is a visual poem wrestling with ideas about love and resurrection.In the artwork’s initial incarnation all of the oversized frames were installed as filmstrips in a room to create the appearance of a giant trim bin that the the editor/viewer entered. The conceit was casting the viewer as a Lilliputian editor of an analog film and requiring of them to piece the ‘film’ together in their minds. In 2015 all the frames were re-shot and animated. There are two versions of the piece.In addition to this version (17:31 minute) gallery version, an additional version is available. It is a 40 minute slowed down version with a soundtrack by Mary Margaret O’Hara recorded live during its inaugural viewing.
