Throwing driftwood at the drums from behind the camera the artist engages in an absurdist and somewhat futile attempt to play a rhythm from afar. Sometimes he is successful in making contact between wood and drums, often he is not. What becomes clear is that the only rhythm that is established is that of the waves hitting the shore. This work highlights the conundrum of overcoming an innate self consciousness that can be experienced when attempting to apprehend the natural environment.
