1000WAVES

2007, HD video, 50:15 min.

This video was shot on the German coast of the Baltic Sea.
Yamashita and Kobayashi counted and numbered 1,000 waves, digitally placing the corresponding number afloat upon each wave. Waves approach the shore in a never-ending flow, one after another, and have an ambiguous form that is difficult to count. This piece depicts a struggle between the two artists and the Baltic Sea.
