In this video, the artist delivers a lecture about death to corpses covered to the shoulders in white sheets. Speaking in a soft, sweet, schoolteacher-ish voice, sometimes pausing to encourage the silent bodies to share their thoughts, she holds forth on the subject of death, writing her main ideas on a blackboard.
