Colossus installation by Miri Chais at Shay Arye Gallery
by In my installation, Colossus, at Shay Arye Gallery, a video stream flows towards the giant Colossus (three metres tall) like ‘the river that issues from Eden to water the garden’ [Genesis 2:10]. However, unlike abundance in its enlightened or spiritual sense, the river flowing through the exhibition is a river of excess.

Driven by a wide spectrum of influences, the music of Brass Bed moves easily through an eclectic mix of genres: from alt-country ballads and progressive rock hooks, to sticky-sweet, heart-felt lyrics, and dissonant experimental freak-outs.
