Signs of Life

It was the afternoon of Sabbath

In a four-cornered room,

Signs of life were singing

So blessings will come soon.

But one flower stood lifeless,

For no music can make it bloom.

Until a dazzling sound of piano

Started playing a tune.

The piano's played by a man

Whose heart is like no other.

And so the rhythm of the instrument

Is as wonderful as its owner.

The musician kept on playing

Until the piano learns to sing

And the man knew the piano well

And the joy that it could bring.

Songs of grace were to be heard

Coming from this instrument

But still the flower remained lifeless,

Almost ready to lose its scent.

The piano kept on playing

For days and months and years,

Quite unsure of what's beyond

That sometimes it sings with tears.

The flower itself knew

That its petals would start to wither,

Like the roots from beneath

Die from the thirst of water

Roots cannot be seen

For in the deeeper ground it is hidden.

But the voice of the piano

Has lessen the flower's burden

The music of the piano

Made the flower wants to live.

It told about the musician

And everything He could give.

But the flower is too afraid

For it is not ready to forgive.

Forgive the other signs of life

For the burden that made her grieve.

Still the instrument kept on singing,

Trusting the musician's plan.

And this time, the flower was willing

To have a little light from the sun.

It knew what it needed:

Some daylight and some water,

And the piano showed the life-giving well

That its Master wants to offer.

The flower is still afraid

But it drank the water with trust,

And the piano patiently waited

Until the day has come at last.

The flower begins to sway

As the piano starts to play.

And as they grow together,

Tears were sent away.

Now the piano sings,

And the flower dance.

Finally, another signs of life

Have given love a chance.

Jamaican hidden histories

Whilst walking around I walked past the OXO Gallery which was holding the ‘Jamaica Hidden Histories’ exhibition, I thought it would be interesting to visit and see the work that they have and how it was displayed. I took a video of the video that was playing in the back of the room. The red chairs were left out for people to sit on and be able to pay attention to what is being played on the tv. I thought this was interesting and give it a casual feeling but I thought it would be a bad idea because of people walking around discussing different art work

Tate Modern

To get some ideas of how I am going to resent my work in a physical space. I went to visit 3 different galleries. 

The first one was one I have visited many times because I knew they would have videos and installations similar to that and as I am using sound in my work I wanted to get an idea of how to present it. In the Tate they have a lot of video instillations and my favourite one is ‘Tiny Deaths’ by Bill Viola 

Whilst I was in there I tried to get a video of the piece but didn’t managed to get the audio and not any footage. 

“ Tiny Deaths was made in 1993. Barely visible figures are perceived in the darkened space until crescendos of light and sound bring moments of drama. The three projections envelop the viewer in the intense experience of the appearance and sudden disappearance of these presences. ‘The struggle we are witnessing today is not between conflicting moral beliefs’, Viola observed in 1992. ‘It is between our inner and our outer lives, and our bodies are the area where this belief is being played out.’ His works of the 1990s consistently show the body as the site for physical transformations – often through immersion in light or water – that embody these profound concerns with transformation and mortality.” (TAKEN FROM  http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/display/bill-viola)

The reason I like this is because of how mysteries the work is. At first I was not able to go into the small room to watch it because I was too scared, the sounds in this give this piece a creepy/ horror feeling to it which makes it more interesting for me.

My friend Beth, who this project is about filmed herself telling her story. This is going to be presented with the pictures whilst this is playing out loud in the background. I feel like this adds emotions into the project as it makes you realise that it is real and it does happen a lot
