Dying for the Other” (as part of the “Cost of Life project series) will be shown as part of Ecocultures at George Mason University. Opening: Sept. 22nd,2011.
The Cost of Life
Beatriz da Costa
The Cost of Life examines the ethical, emotional, and economic costs of producing and sustaining life. The Cost of Life consists of a series of projects spanning different media. The first “Dying for the Other,” is a video triptych addressing a situation of shared suffering, involving mice used in breast cancer research, and humans afflicted with the same disease. In order to produce this video, da Costa documented scenes of her own life during the summer of 2011 and combined them with footage taken at a breast cancer research facility in New York City over the same time span. “Dying for the Other,” is being exhibited for the first time as part of EcoCultures.
