"The film begins within Thoreauan-Brakhage territory, with black-and-white shots of leaves in a forest. Slowly, to the sounds of electronic noise, the images transform into blotchy green, yellow and purple compositions that become increasingly abstract through an array of techniques like hand-processing, painting on the film, and multiple re-photography of projected images. Sogo’s candy-colored outer space of handmade coronae takes the viewer on what feels like a bizarre, overpowering journey through the filmmaker’s own singular, labyrinthine mind." (Ed Halter)
