Hinterhof feat. James Richards Untitled Merchandise (Trade Urn), 2008

The artist rides a Segway, reads of local deaths and tries to push a funerary urn out the door amidst a simple tyranny of sound and light. The work is performed 3 times. The first time begins with the lights on and they are systematically switched off. The second time begins in darkness and the lights are systematically switched on. The third time begins with the lights on again. - I.W.
