Maui Weekly Art Maui 2010 Review

2010-04-14T20:04:00.002-07:00

What Babe Ruth was to baseball, Tom Sewell is to art— both regularly and reliably hit home runs. Sewell has created two inspired and exceptional installations. Bach, Monks and Shakespeare Meet in Water is a mixed media installation with video. Somehow, Sewell and his resident geniuses have figured out a way to project a video image of a face—in this case it’s the face of the actor Stacey Keach—onto a mannequin, so that it looks like Keach is here in a monk’s habit reciting Hamlet and Lear’s soliloquies. The music accompanying the work was composed by Tan Dun and performed by the Kronos Quartet.

Sewell’s other piece is another technological marvel. He and his menehune have taken those digital photo frames and jiggered them so that they play video. This video is a tribute to Sewell’s late mentor, Dr. William “Rubak” Vitarelli, a man who lived his life to the fullest and sought to contribute to the betterment of human kind over all of his 99 years. Take the time to sit before each of the four screens and listen to all four 10-minute segments. This may be the best 40 minutes you will ever spend.
