28.IV.81 (DESCENDING FIGURES)

"28.IV.81 (DESCENDING FIGURES) is comprised of footage Harris shot at a performance of Christ’s Passion, staged as an attraction in a Florida amusement park… This flimsy display of devotion is shown up by something genuinely overpowering, or at least recognizably real. In a way, this seems to sum up Harris’s practice. Filmic images are things with actual impact in the world, and as such they have an unavoidable ethical dimension."
