Sleeping Woman (1992, 4 min.) is a poetic documentary about a mysterious poem that appeared on the bank of the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia in 1991. The text was written by nationally known poet Stephen Berg and painted on the stone retaining wall beside the river by artist Tom Chimes. A meditation on death, nature, and language, the piece stretches for over 1100 feet along the river. The video is a linked series of visual essays that consider the genesis of the work, the physical splendor of the piece, and the personal and cultural contexts of the project.
