The work presents animated montages, mainly of stereotypical images of ‘black’ behaviour, including figures involved in fragmentary, random acts of violence like robberies and drive-by shootings. At the bottem is a doll laid out in a coffin surrounded by funeral wreaths. The cubicle is closed-off, and thus the projected images may only be seen by peeking through small holes in the wall. The crypt-like space and darkness give the feeling of a memorial."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"In een mausoleumachtige ruimte is de video-installatie *Laid to Rest* (1998) te zien. De video toont geanimeerde stereotiepe beelden van zwart gedrag. Personages houden zich bezig met fragmentarische, willekeurige daden van geweld, zoals overvallen en ‘drive-by-shootings’. Eronder ligt een pop opgebaard in een kist omgeven door rouwkransen. Het hokje is afgesloten. De geprojecteerde beelden kan je alleen bekijken door het onhandig gluren door kleine kijkgaten in de muren. De crypteachtige ruimte geeft ons een ongemakkelijk gevoel bij dit herdenkingsmonument.
