Breaking
the Surface
|
As the sun sets on Bridgwater docks, people are starting to gather. Something
is brewing. A mysterious music emanates from diverse sources. It diffuses
dimly from open windows. Progressively, the metallic sounds envelop and
isolate the viewers. Above the water, spasms of lights single out familiar
artefacts: shopping trolleys, bicycles, a wheelbarrow. Five lights stop.
The objects seem to rest on the surface of the water. One light starts.
Now illuminated, a decayed iron gate emerges from the darkness. Lugubrious
albeit strangely inviting. Three lights enter the game. They chase each
other across the surface of the water. The intangible tangles of lights
echo the former liveliness of the place.
