1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,750
(tranquil music)

2
00:00:07,683 --> 00:00:10,443
(traffic noises)

3
00:00:10,443 --> 00:00:13,026
(gentle music)

4
00:00:20,670 --> 00:00:24,273
- This is one of the most
radical architectures built.

5
00:00:26,580 --> 00:00:29,310
Over 70% of this building is a void.

6
00:00:29,310 --> 00:00:32,730
It's the air, it's the
light, it's the tilt.

7
00:00:32,730 --> 00:00:33,870
It's all of these things

8
00:00:33,870 --> 00:00:36,660
that really create an
entirely new inner world

9
00:00:36,660 --> 00:00:38,430
when you enter this museum.

10
00:00:38,430 --> 00:00:40,290
You see how people behave differently.

11
00:00:40,290 --> 00:00:41,730
They move differently.

12
00:00:41,730 --> 00:00:44,433
Your whole sense of
time and space changes.

13
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,440
How do you make a piece that
helps me, helps the viewer,

14
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,772
helps the building understand itself anew?

15
00:00:52,772 --> 00:00:55,522
(tranquil music)

16
00:01:01,941 --> 00:01:05,571
(scratching sounds)

17
00:01:05,571 --> 00:01:08,238
(lively music)

18
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,063
(lively music)

19
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,883
(lively music)

20
00:01:29,709 --> 00:01:32,376
(lively music)

21
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:36,720
When you come up here,

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,990
you start to see this thing
called the River of Images.

23
00:01:39,990 --> 00:01:43,530
The River of Images
goes around in one loop.

24
00:01:43,530 --> 00:01:44,880
Moving images seem

25
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,403
like they're just bleeding
into architecture.

26
00:01:48,450 --> 00:01:49,980
The bay is this image maker.

27
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:52,380
It's making images through these shadows,

28
00:01:52,380 --> 00:01:55,020
the shadows of the sculpture, my shadow,

29
00:01:55,020 --> 00:01:56,580
and two images moving together.

30
00:01:56,580 --> 00:01:59,370
So it's like a live film
and this is total chance.

31
00:01:59,370 --> 00:02:02,640
This will happen once every month.

32
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,600
The reels are in different
speeds, so the moving images,

33
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,063
they collide at different times,

34
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,260
and then as you come around
and you see this sculpture,

35
00:02:13,260 --> 00:02:14,910
if you go to the top of the sculpture,

36
00:02:14,910 --> 00:02:19,170
it really draws attention to
this incredible oculus ceiling.

37
00:02:19,170 --> 00:02:21,840
This is an important idea that
people would go in the bay

38
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,910
and look out, 'cause you
never stand where the art is.

39
00:02:23,910 --> 00:02:24,743
You can imagine,

40
00:02:24,743 --> 00:02:26,640
what's it like to be a
painting hung in this space?

41
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:27,783
That's what you see.

42
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:31,426
(pensive music)

43
00:02:32,678 --> 00:02:37,341
(voices murmuring)
(beeping sounds)

44
00:02:37,341 --> 00:02:38,820
(clock ticking)

45
00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:41,378
I use very mundane
materials to really push

46
00:02:41,378 --> 00:02:42,570
at that question

47
00:02:42,570 --> 00:02:46,797
of how you imbue value
in inanimate objects.

48
00:02:46,797 --> 00:02:49,464
(pensive music)

49
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,590
People are very careful around the work.

50
00:02:52,590 --> 00:02:57,003
There's a sense that any
wind could just topple it.

51
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,960
That's really the cusp that
I'm interested in meeting

52
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,170
where things are right at
the point of coming together

53
00:03:04,170 --> 00:03:06,060
but really at this fragile point

54
00:03:06,060 --> 00:03:08,952
where you could imagine them
falling apart at any time.

55
00:03:08,952 --> 00:03:12,120
(pensive music)

56
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,640
Looking at it, you can
try and trace a history

57
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:15,933
of how it's made.

58
00:03:17,550 --> 00:03:19,170
It's all there for you.

59
00:03:19,170 --> 00:03:22,730
You can see the clamps,
you can see the props.

60
00:03:22,730 --> 00:03:25,397
(pensive music)

61
00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:34,344
(rustling sounds)

62
00:03:38,951 --> 00:03:41,701
(tearing sounds)

63
00:03:49,012 --> 00:03:51,845
(rustling sounds)

64
00:03:57,468 --> 00:04:02,468
(clanging sounds)
(rustling sounds)

65
00:04:05,964 --> 00:04:08,910
(tranquil music)

66
00:04:08,910 --> 00:04:11,130
Every artwork is a timekeeper.

67
00:04:11,130 --> 00:04:14,700
It's a time capsule of
what it means to be alive.

68
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:17,130
To go see an ancient artwork

69
00:04:17,130 --> 00:04:19,593
and realize this was
touched by human beings,

70
00:04:20,580 --> 00:04:23,430
this was seen by centuries of people,

71
00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:25,380
and I am now having a conversation

72
00:04:25,380 --> 00:04:28,863
with all of those human
beings through an object.

73
00:04:30,551 --> 00:04:33,301
(tranquil music)

74
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,110
Anything in this museum is here

75
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:38,820
because hundreds of people

76
00:04:38,820 --> 00:04:40,893
have shepherded that work through.

77
00:04:42,060 --> 00:04:44,193
The artist is just one piece of that.

78
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:48,840
I'm really grateful for
the people I work with.

79
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:51,150
When I was young, I look
at my painter friends

80
00:04:51,150 --> 00:04:53,691
and I would say they
spend the whole day alone.

81
00:04:53,691 --> 00:04:55,140
(Sarah chuckling)

82
00:04:55,140 --> 00:04:57,870
Now that I have children, and I teach,

83
00:04:57,870 --> 00:05:00,750
and I have older parents,
being alone in a room

84
00:05:00,750 --> 00:05:03,273
with a painting is an incredible pleasure.

85
00:05:04,203 --> 00:05:06,870
(pensive music)

86
00:05:11,972 --> 00:05:15,472
(faint background noises)

87
00:05:22,375 --> 00:05:24,377
(tranquil music)

88
00:05:24,377 --> 00:05:25,210
For this show,

89
00:05:25,210 --> 00:05:27,723
I wanted to only have paintings
bigger than your body.

90
00:05:29,580 --> 00:05:33,363
The paintings became portals
to interior landscapes.

91
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,490
They tell us about how
we see inside our heads,

92
00:05:38,490 --> 00:05:40,590
how memories are collected,

93
00:05:40,590 --> 00:05:45,543
how they're lost, how they're
misinterpreted, reinterpreted.

94
00:05:47,910 --> 00:05:50,850
There's a longing for interior images

95
00:05:50,850 --> 00:05:52,770
because there's so many exterior images

96
00:05:52,770 --> 00:05:54,483
that that balance has changed.

97
00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:57,960
Like in my generation,
if you asked me like,

98
00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:59,640
what did you look like as a child?

99
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,100
There's like four pictures
that my parents framed

100
00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:03,150
and they put on the wall,

101
00:06:03,150 --> 00:06:05,050
and that's what I think I looked like.

102
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,060
You know, with my children,
there's, you know, a day,

103
00:06:09,060 --> 00:06:11,370
there's 70 pictures.

104
00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:14,210
We have a really different
sense of the image.

105
00:06:14,210 --> 00:06:16,960
(tranquil music)

106
00:06:21,540 --> 00:06:25,530
During the pandemic, it was
very hard to measure time.

107
00:06:25,530 --> 00:06:28,440
For most of us, our
serendipitous interaction

108
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,573
with people was cut down dramatically.

109
00:06:31,770 --> 00:06:36,420
Those moments have emotional intensity.

110
00:06:36,420 --> 00:06:38,160
What you were wearing,
what it smelled like,

111
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,300
what it sounded like,

112
00:06:39,300 --> 00:06:41,733
all of those things helped us mark time.

113
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,760
Art can show you how time
is marked through emotion

114
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,240
like no other medium.

115
00:06:50,220 --> 00:06:52,200
Because that's how we as
human beings measure time.

116
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,820
I think when I'm on my deathbed,

117
00:06:53,820 --> 00:06:58,050
I will think emotionally
about the timeline of my life

118
00:06:58,050 --> 00:07:03,000
and art is a thing that gives
us this way of seeing that.

119
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,750
(tranquil music)

120
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:14,189
(tranquil music)

121
00:07:19,429 --> 00:07:22,179
(tranquil music)

122
00:07:26,829 --> 00:07:30,246
(tranquil music fading)
