Yellow Limbo interleaves vintage photographs and Super8 film shot by crewmembers of 14 cargo ships stranded in the Suez Canal for 8 years with the artists own recent footage on location and a series of intertitles that provide a fragmentary narrative as well as explode into a larger historical context The threeway comparison of events and image sources disembodied from the timeline of experience creates a complication of concurrence consequence and dissociation giving rise to a sense that time is pleated causality radiating and that this rippling expanse of saltwater somehow communicates diagonally through time
