Recall
1974
2 x 2 x 8
In Recall Im using turpentine as a device to activate the memory, past experiences when the smell occurred. The material is actually inhaled- I stuffed cotton saturated with turpentine into my nose, and like a drug, it induced an alteration of a past region in which the smell prevailed, and I verbalize in a kind of rambling stream of consciousness monologue.
Video tape, video monitor, metal pan 2 x 8, 5 gal turpentine, black tint.
