Projection Harbor is the photographic counterpart to Ellie Ga’s work Four Thousand Blocks, a narrative video triptych that explores, through the myth of the god Thoth, the values of history and writing for contemporary society. Projection Harbor is a blurred image that presents two dice from the myth of Thoth that are found in the video triptych: the god of writing and remembrance also governs over the magic of this world and the occult sciences. With this multimedia project, Ellie Ga expresses the search for the right way to evoke the past by focusing on the production of language that stems from myths.
