„Es gibt keine Tyranneien, die nicht versuchen, die Kunst einzuschränken, weil sie die Macht der Kunst sehen. Kunst kann der Welt Dinge sagen, die sonst nicht geteilt werden können. Kunst vermittelt Gefühle.“

- Volodymyr Selenskyj, Präsident der Ukraine

A sense of the end, 1996
Installation , 00:14:00

A Sense of the End from 1996 is one of two works from Lewis’ oeuvre that was never made into an edition. Another meta-cinematic meditation, it is a film (shown as an installation) made up of six alternative endings of a single imaginary film, complete with dynamic credits and a climactic soundtrack that adds further drama to the work’s “sense of the end”. It is often shown alongside an eponymous series of still photographs taken from these various final scenes.
