Description

"\"The present project Fragments of Light 6 will have a sharp contrast to the other Fragments of Light publications and although there will be no physical book, Fragments of Light 6 is inspired by word and image in form of an installation comprised of the monochromatic projection by Naho Taruishi, and the sound composed by Zahra Partovi and performed by Alyssa Reit. The duration of this installation is about 16 minutes in length and looped. Recalling Plato's Allegory of the Cave in a miniature tale, this short fragment from Book I of The Masnavi of Rumi tells of a bird and a hunter pursuing its shadow. Sound of clocks and flutters enter us into the realm of light and dark of the projection. Abstract images shift from an opening gate of light, to a flying bird, to a closing eye on the horizon, and to a veil of light into darkness. Finally the sound and image converge in the sweep of the bird soaring away. As a whole, this installation articulates a space to be visible, invisible, audible and silent.\" --Vincent Fitz Gerald & Co. website."
