“Typhoon coming on” -Sondra Perry- She has created an immersive environment with a newly-conceived soundscape to accompany her animation Typhoon coming on . Featuring a digitally manipulated image of J.M.W. Turner’s 1840 painting Slave Ship, the original work depicts the drowning of 133 slaves by the captain of the British slave ship, Zong, to claim compensation for these “goods” under the slave clause of the ship’s insurance policy. #serpentinegallery #london #immersion #contemporaryart #me #mywork#annalisadamelio
