The work is a six-channel videodisk installation initially made for six monitors. The piece is concerned with the notion of displacement that is as axiomatic as trust between strangers and bar disclosures. Fourteen narrators tell fragmented tales of their experiences of deracination, love, exile and the bar where they meet, and these are interwoven to become a collective telling. Initially taped for documenta IX (Kassel, Germany) in the year the Berlin Wall collapsed, the recounted experiences are fragmented through different languages, with voice-over in either Yiddish or Polish, and sub-titles in alternating English, French or German. An edition of the work (as an “artwork”) was purchased by the National Gallery of Canada.
