absence presence place is a video work that investigates three abandoned sites in around the area of Gotro’s hometown of Kelowna, Canada ...

Each location conveys a unique sense of history, time passage, and abandonment. Both the natural and the man-altered environments are here marked by a sense of longing; invoked lyrically through the video’s soundtrack, a left/right stereo voice that combines the whispered and the breathed mantra: “absence, presence, place”.
