Through a mix-tape of found videos, Apex to Base 2.0 explores significant world occurrences of a single year (1997). A video-audio installation serves as one big eye to delve into events imprinted on an artist's mind for reasons unknown.
Emergency Alerts systems, animal cloning, past political statements that remain current today, old fabulous technology - take a break and look at the stars, might catch a comet, or play a chess game with your old computer.
Stare again at the sky and see flights coming and going. Pause for the minute, commemorate something or someone, like the longest-living person. Maybe walk down memory lane and revisit unforgettable sports events, or catch some people just speeding hard- that hard that can reach the planet Saturn.
