I really like the photograph and the cute clock. The photos speak to me more than the video because of the various tones. The various tones and transparent people are like time is in progressing never end.

Beautiful profound, particularly the southern most exhibit. I am going to return to view and to listen and soak and likely to weep.

The exhibit about the Sami woman from Sweden moved me deeply. She articulated clearly and simply her unique perspective, and connected me to nature, culture and what it is to be human. A true gift. Thank you.

so many projectors! i liked the one that went though to the other side. It used two projectors to make 4 images.

good mix of film and static components, you make good use of the space, it is very cinematic and at the same time invites the spatial exploration of the space because you always here a halting voice in the back so you move forward to expole and to understand what it is all about

A very intricate concept of history explained vibrantly throughout the exhibition!

Thank you very much. I found the video connecting the biography of Walter Benjamin and the history of the small town very impressive.

Thank you for exploring and sharing the experience of dislocation - we all need to name this experience for ourselves, and you make it visible and accessible.

Kota Takaoka from Japan at 4:03 pm Sunday, February 10, 2013

Hi, I am interested in these kind of videos. Especially, I feel that a art of three different kind of crying faces tend to provoke some projected emotion.

The Aushtwitz piece of the survivors' reactions definitely stole the show. Extremely captivating.

GL at 12:01 pm Tuesday, February 5, 2013

Stunning body of work. I am moved think about the depth of emotion human being are made to carry. And how this becomes entangled with the lands we claim.

You've given us pieces of memory, whether joyous or devastating. Amazing to be able to peer into a time, place, and emotion like that. Thank you for that experience. Though I feel one would need hours to really appreciate the entirety of this exhibit.

Anna Stonehocker at 2:25 pm Wednesday, January 30, 2013

Very captivating and provocative. Powerful

I don't really understand what this is all about, but I think this is fine. It's different. XD

between the listening and talking was good

george stanley from vancouver at 2:09 pm Friday, January 18, 2013

Dear Esther, It was a great pleasure to meet you, and now it has been deeply affecting to spend some time with your art works. The phrase "terribly human" occurred to me; i hope you don't think that too glib. I don't mean it as a summary remark but merely as an instant of recognition of the reality you are attempting to communicate. yours, with best regards, george stanley

WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!?!?!?

shireen cotterall from Vancouver at 4:42 pm Saturday, January 12, 2013

Inspiring to hear Ian Wallace's talk on 'late conceptualism". The position of the spectator and so forth. My grade 7 art students were inspired by Wallace's work when they visited his exhibit. The art work they created in response to his work heightened my awareness of the spectator, even being so young.

Ricardo Torres from Mexico City at 7:59 pm Thursday, January 10, 2013

Great work. Really strong pieces that have inspired me and will surely influence future work. Cheers!
