lovingbothI spent three days at the Venice Biennale in 2015. That translates as seeing at least a thousand pieces of art. This is one of the handful I remember the most.
It was part of an installation in the Arsenale, Republican Venice's shipyard and the largest pre-industrial production centre in Europe.
You walked past a factory bench with pearls, round a corner and into the room this was showing on a loop. (Dead link to vimeo.com/223284743 removed...)
Watch for the bubbles, stay for the weirdness.
CW: contains cruelty to oysters and factory work.
Update2: Try here for extended extracts of three of her films, including this one. You may notice some themes in common :)

It was a couple of months old and didn't have many views - it's Vimeo, not YouTube - so it's possible that commenting on it alerted someone to its presence. Annoyingly, I can't remember who was the uploader, but they looked legit (a gallery?) and the quality says it was definitely from an original source rather than someone's phone doing a 'cam'.
