"I say that every body moved or struck keeps in itself for a time the nature of this blow or movement, and keeps it in proportion as the power of the force of this blow or movement is greater or less. Observe a blow given on a bell- how it preserves the noise of the percussion...The eye keeps within itself the images of luminous bodies for a certain time...The stroke of a bell leaves its likeness behind it impressed as the sun in the eye or the scent in the air..." From the Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci, Book II, The UNIVERSE, Part II the Four Powers of Nature

Projects The Dream Door Project is a multilingual video series in which interviews are conducted in the speaker's native tongue. The interviews consist of the speaker's response to the same question posed by the artist. The underlying connection in the work comes from the tone and rhythm of the voice as a response is contemplated, which can be felt and experienced even if the viewer doesn't understand the language being spoken. I have collected interviews with people in languages such as Hindi, Russian, German, Tamil, French and English. I would like to expand the project to include interviews from every corner of the globe.

Prospero's Library began as a project inspired by both the character of Prospero in Shakespeare's The Tempest , and the film Prospero's Books by Peter Greenaway. Imagining Prospero's magical library of everything was the starting point for an exhibition that is ever-expanding and transforming, as different books and items are added to it, and it magically manifests itself in different places on the globe. The idea came from Moscow-based writer and artist Mikhail Pogarsky, who invited Evelina Schatz in Milan and Gillian McIver in London to co-curate the project.
Prospero's Library truly resembles the original library of the magician Prospero in that, like his collection, it has travelled far and wide. The first manifestation of the library was made in the Zverevskiy Center of Contemporary Art in Moscow. After that the show toured to various regions including Yasnaja Poliana, Tula where Tolstoy lived; culminating in a presence at the Moscow Central House of Artists. Further tours were made in Russia, and to Catania and Milan and London.
