Engage the Minotaur stills, 2003
two channel video 1hr. 45 min. continuous loop

Recorded live at a rodeo, each screen shows bull riding from two separate vantage points. One camera follows the movements of the cowboy and one follows the bull until each leaves the arena. When there is no action the cameras focus on signs hung on either side of the bucking shoots.  The six signs (three on each side) advertise fictitious companies. The three companies on the left pertain to issues of biology (Quality Mitosis Seeds, LaGrange Nursery, Colon Family Restaurant) and the three on the right with issues of culture (Biography Construction Co., National Engineering Concepts, English’s Western Wear.) The camera focused on the biology signs follows the bull and the camera focused on the culture signs follows the cowboy during the action.
