Bas Jan Ader

Um, this is another piece called Bodies of Water.

Uh, so Bodies of Water, um, Bodies of Water was a, was a piece that we, I started to develop, um, interested in exploring an ar- an artist called Bas Jan Ader, who's a real contemporary, or not, uh, a real conceptual artist who disappeared while making a piece called In Search of Mir- In Search of the Miraculous.

And we decided to make a show about, uh, that person where the, the design concept was how do you, how do you use failure as a hinge point? So, uh, it started out as an exhibition, so we made a show.

We, we invented an artist called Ira Dean.
