THE BLACKEST SEA

by Peggy AHWESH
2016 / HD / color / sound / 1S / 9' 00

Refashioning the intention of footage lifted from an online animated news outlet, THE BLACKEST SEA is a cautionary tale about human foibles increasingly out of alignment with the forces of nature. The video offer a poetic tour through our dense cultural landscape, driven by the Gods of the inexplicable sea, desperate refugees and the metaphor of the whale as unattainable conquest. The simple, hypnotic animations, gather together our collective prurient interests, fears and obsession.
