M: My next question is, can you describe the process you use to create your new film?

K: Sure. It’s a little hard to slice that pie.

M: Of course.

K: But there are a couple directions I am approaching the video from. The initial incentive for the video was that I made a sculpture that was a funerary casket. I had made the sculpture shortly after getting out of school, during the whole terrorism fiasco here in New York. I kept it with me for nearly six years, transferred to a new studio... It sat there like this big symbol of some really heavy stuff. At one point I built a giant crate and hid it inside for a year. Then I decided finally I needed to get rid of it. In figuring out how to dispose of it, I decided I would take it to an island off the coast of Maine, set it on fire, and send it to sea with a silicon effigy of myself inside. And why not make a video while I was doing that? So the whole thing started with an object, a sculpture that I couldn’t reconcile. So it became a prop, and the video gave narrative to it. I’ve been trying to use the narrative nature of video, to organize the things I make. I am still making things (sculptures)…
