The airport is a place between destinations, between daily life and travel, between home and where you are headed. All of the works in this exhibition made use of the context of various locations in the international arrivals terminal at JFK Airport. Two artists put their video works in the monitors of TV chairs which normally were there for distracting passengers. Instead people would see video works having to do with journeys and identity. Otherworks were placed on the window and the planes landing and taking off were meant to be seen across and through the images. Some pieces were free standing, others were in particular settings. Airports provide a good climate for alternative voyages, meditative or imagined.

My installation was structured around ideas of temple architecture and was situated next to the airport chapel. Looping films were rear-projected from the inside and included images superimposed over rhythmic ordinary activity: hands washing under a stream of running water, and a woman turning her head so that her hair slips away from her face. On top of these looping films various landscapes would appear and disappear, suggesting both an intimately imagined journey as well as an actual one.
