ARCHI PELAGO
Archipelago, the word, from the 16th century Italian ‘arci’ meaning ‘chief’ and ‘pelago’ meaning ‘gulf, deep pool, abyss’. A compound word first used in the 1280’s to describe the Aegean Sea, which has many islands. And thus we come to this meditation on the many islands in the sea at Bonavista Bay on the island of Newfoundland. Four short films about time and place and the dimensions in between. Coming soon…….
