From the artist:

"My father used to tell me a tale about the gardener of a famous Sultan who saw Death hiding behind a tree in the palace's garden. Terrified, the gardener dropped his tools and ran back to the palace. Death came for me, he told the Sultan, I saw him in the garden. The Sultan gave the gardener his finest horse, and riding night and day for weeks the gardener safely arrived at a distant far away town he has never been to before. The next morning he went to find food. He walked into the market and saw Death. Ah, there you are, said Death, I was wondering why you were at the Sultan's palace since I was scheduled to meet you in this market.

This story to me is not so much about determinism versus free will as much as it is about how we understand and experience change and progress: the tension between the feeling that this moment is so very different than the moment that came before it, and the feeling that we carry inside us something unchanging, immutable, the thing that makes us recognizable to ourselves that can not be changed by anything.

This video is a result of a new collaboration with artist Nir Harel. It's about the push and pull of things that momentarily come into your orbit, the traces they leave and the traces that dissipate."
