Indoor or outdoor installation. From the Artist (per insert in presentation box housing master DVD): The Shallow Sea is inspired by Jack Clayton's 1961 movie "The Innocents" which is based on the American author Henry James chilling ghost story "The Turn of the Screw." In the film an inexperienced governess believes that evil spirits are communicating to each other through the children in her charge. The little girl, Flora, is often heard humming "Oh, Willow Waly," a melancholy song about an abandoned lover who dies of heartbreak. A pivotal scene takes place at the pond in the garden. The little girl starts humming the tune "Oh, Willow Waly" only to have another disembodied voice harmonise with hers. At this moment the spectral figure of the previous governess appears across from her in the pond. For "The Shallow Sea" two recordings of my voice singing the same song will be heard playing unison. I have chosen to sing two identical versions of the song and have them play simultaneously to create the effect of disembodiment and otherness. Master DVD with presentation box; exhibition copy DVD
