MAGIC CANNOT CROSS THE SEA is a five-channel video installation created in collaboration with creatives associated with Atelier Sahm in Congo Brazza- ville. The videos feature sapeurs, dandies on the streets of Brazzaville, and clothing from museum archives of „western“ museums.

The installation is accompanied by a 26-minute sound track. The work was produced for the Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna.
