A mathematical play on one repeated movement. It imparts a sense of possibilities: that something simple can produce complex and unexpected patterns. As with an atom, the variety of possibilities from a base movement is potentially infinite.
A film unmade-- That is, Survage's film was never realized in the traditional sense-- At the time, such a project was beyond technological possibility. His pioneering efforts to combine luminous, expressive painting and the moving picture were further curtailed by the outbreak of WWI. Some have taken it upon themselves to 'animate' his watercolor plates in attempts to set his dream into motion.
Three memories that become one. An attempt to merge heterogeneous materials: a film sequence shot in Rome, a photo from the 1930s, a noisy soundtrack. Fragmented lines, exploding bass frequencies and flickering.
Claire is composed of digital scans and blow-ups of a series of three ink-on-paper artworks created in 2012 by French-Spanish researcher, publisher and artist Claire Latxague. While collecting drawings, written documents and other printed materials for a (yet unreleased) project called Un film de papier, I’ve stumbled upon Latxague’s artwork, entitled À la renverse. The blow-ups were made in an attempt of unearthing cartographic imagery in abstract compositions.
Doors in our life. Each has a melody, like a music box. They have stories, like a book. They will be opened one by one.
WHAT ARE DREAMS? Alesia asks herself these question as she guides us on a psychedelic and abstract journey on the limits of the senses of dreams.
The first part depicts the heroine's toothache consequent to the loss of a very valuable watermelon, her dentistry and transportation to heaven. Next follows an elaborate exposition of the heavenly land, in terms of Israel and Montreal. The second part depicts the return to Earth from being eaten by Max Müller on the day Edward VII dedicated the Great Sewer of London.
The story of a man who has reached the very top of society and eventually became a victim of his own ideology.
The film was produced applying mixed techniques on Super 8 film support.
A portrait of a speaker, engrossed in his own speech, finds the hall empty.
Shapes projected onto an abstract environment. The movement and scale of the forms in the film is a beautiful equivalent of the dynamics of the soundtrack
Schwartz reordered and combined angular contours, broken planes, and distorted proportions in her own pictorial structures in an homage to Picasso's style.
An abstract documentary, in three parts, about the gradual process of an Ayahuasca ritual performed by the Shawãdawa "enchanted macaw" indigenous family.
