Situation #1 (1998)

"Bibi Calderaro invented the fishing machine. She designed a series of reins that support a Super 8 film camera, put it as a hook in a fishing rod and threw it to the Hudson River in the middle of Manhattan. [...] What is most curious is not the proceedings but the circumstances. Such a strange idea: to try finding an image in the center of a city that is an arsenal of images; to practice a displacement of thousands of miles - Buenos Aires/New York - just to end up looking for a maternal uterus in which to find shelter; to use an instrument of such extreme precision such as a camera and subject it to the chances of destiny."
