ISA GAGARIN KAREN WIRTH Nothing Staid, sequence repeated for 100 pages, 2011. Text from Virginia Woolf, The Waves, 1931. INTERSECTIONS
ISA GAGARIN KAREN WIRTH ARTISTS’ STATEMENT Based on Virginia Woolf’s The Waves, Nothing Staid articulates the repetition of life experience. The Waves delves into individual consciousness over the course of life; it is internal, reflective. The novel’s structure couples long narrative with short interruptions full of simile and description. We followed that rhythm in editing the video, while in the accompanying book we provide a continuous, contemplative commentary. The meditative quality of repetition is a form of emptying out; nothingness can be meaningful. The forty-seven-second video loop cycles through footage that is quiet and repetitive, interrupted abruptly by patterns. A black book sits just below, with a hundred pages of sparse white handtraced text. Repeated lines from The Waves cause a rhythmic loss of self, while creating a chant-like poem that is both Woolf’s and the artists’. Collapsing our personal identities with Woolf’s writing and the figures in the video is a way to saturate the “I” referred to in the text with multiple points of experience. Who is the speaker? Is it the reader of the text? Where is the “I”? Is it in the handwritten type, or is it the occasional figure in the video? The lull of the wave gives way to moments of sharp recognition. The piece invites immersion at the same time that it positions the viewer as an observer. INTERSECTIONS
