Remember 911 - The Party (2007)

9 min 36 secSingle channel / Digital Video / Black & White / Sound

"A video work which documents a bad taste party, which utilises the September 11th terrorist attack in the United States of America, as the theme of the party. This video explores New Zealand's distance as its greatest deterrent against terrorism but at the cost of empathy?"
