stay with me for a while | Death is Elsewhere by Ragnar Kjartansson

Visited the AGO today and was absolutely mesmerized by this simple exhibition. My friends and I literally sat in the middle of this for who knows how long.

"I could literally fall asleep in here listening to this."

I didn't read the exhibit description after we left and was stunned to learn that the couples were actually a member of a set of twins... insane. We really thought it was the same two people until we went back into the middle of the room and stayed for a few more minutes.
