About her video Reality Confront End

Created as a collaborative project with a dance company the video REALITY CONFRONT END stands on its own as an art piece. Combining original art work and music it deals with loss and illness. For three years artist Rosemary Feit Covey worked with David Welch, a young man with a brain tumor. He sought to find artistic meaning in his experience and allowed complete access to his medical procedures, including surgery: doctors visits, and his extensive daily journals. Above all else, he insisted on an honest portrayal of his experience. His last coherent words before his recent death were "REALITY.CONFRONT.END".

Video created in collaboration with Katey Cohen.
