red and dead

hey, well done indeed just seen it all in the press. was thinkin about its new context, now the paper, printed adds another dimension. 'the mystery body being found', adding an eerie relism to your work. i can't help thinkin that the printing of it has definately enriched its intertext but has this manipulated or embellished the work? is its printing in the newspaper this actual coincdental juxtaposition perhaps the work? it if nothing else underlines the truth in your point that human life is so fragile.

good pics x x x

This is one of a collection of five stills and a short film Zarina Bhimji exhibited for the turner prize in 2oo7 . These images were collected over a period of many months when bhimji spent days travelling the trade and imigration routes in Uganda, talking to people from all the places she came into contact with. Uganda has a colourful history partly from suffering from Idi Amin and the migration and uproar that this causes. Ifound it particularly relevent her as she closely anlysis the movement and pathways of people and place.
