Tale

Overview

Tale (2025) gazes into a narrow crevice, scarcely a hand’s breadth wide, between utility pole transformers that remain like barbs upon a primordial void where human histories have been erased by urban development. Across this precarious gap charged with high-voltage current, the movements of a magpie building its nest, a human attempting to remove it, and a crow circling and crying out as if foretelling revenge and loss intersect. Layering the narrative of the old folktale “The Grateful Magpie” over the history of the site, the work captures the lingering traces of beings that remain in a liminal zone, unable to fully belong to either historical or mythical time, and always on the verge of collapse.
