Artwork Description |In this 35mmfilm shot inaBarbican flat in central London, an explorer tells his<br />
anthropologist friend about an experience with apreviously uncontacted group<br />
in the jungle and how he underwent aritual, which, he claims, granted him<br />
immortality. When his friend fails to believe him, the scene seamlessly loops<br />
back to its beginning. Like the endlessly repeating film, the explorer is frozen<br />
in aloop outside real time, immortalized.<br />
