The

Abramovic and Ulay traveled to Sicily to continue their project of exploring time and place in relation to a culture and its people. Here their fluidly moving camera passes through a configuration of rocks and men to an interior of ornate furniture and motionless women, while an evocative hybrid language forms an hypnotic spoken accompaniment. As a study of contrasts ? male/female, interior/exterior, nature/civilization ? this tape also reveals the affinity of these people with their environment.
