Video (2014)

Once upon a time there was limited distraction and an abundance of hours. Dana Dal Bo’s Tomorrow I Will Be Thinking About the Future combines footage of the Curiosity Rover landing on Mars with smartphone video of our moon being passed by a cloud. These events are brought together to create a feeling of nostalgia for our former imaginings of the future.

• Dana Dal Bo sees her practice as an expanded fairytale about the contemporary notion of the impossible. She works with photo, video, textiles, performance and the net. Her work has been exhibited internationally including Hong Kong, Cuba, and Mexico, where she participated in the IV International Biennial of Textile Art. She is currently based in Montreal, Canada and has an intimate relationship with the occult.
