The Absolute Reality (La realidad absoluta)

Seven readers recite from seminal religious texts written in their original language: the Qu’ran (or Korn) in Avrabic, the Bible in Latin, the Yoga Sutras (or Patañjali) in Sanskrit, the Sutra (Pali Sutra or discourses of the Buddha) in Japanese, the Torah in Hebrew, Dao De Jing in Chinese, and a Prayer to Olodumare in Yorube. The texts are read in monotone in a gallery space divided into two sections with a semi-translucent white cloth separating the audience from the viewers. The Thing, a non-profit organization committed to the development of new media culture, information technology, and social activism, facilitates the real-time online transmission of The Absolute Reality from Art in General to La Casona.
