Tail

Video installation with scent of pure musk. 11 minutes, 2003. A strong animal scent fills the room, A female voice is overheard whispering "I can smell him". As you turn the corner in the pitch black room, you come to a video projection of grainy night vision footage shot in a spectacular Victorian cemetery. Sirens sound, and it is difficult to make out what she is looking for. What is this woman doing alone in a cemetery at night? What is she looking for?
