What I Saw in the Theater of the Street: a 2 channel video installation
This work is inspired by the twin traditions of street
photography and the urban literary sketch. Small details are explored and compared; the
microscopic becomes the sublime as the two screens enter into a dialogue with
each other. A bubble bursts in Central Park, an abstract reflection of a tree
in a canal in Paris shimmers, an Occupy Wall Street demonstrator gesticulates, a
roll of hand processed black and white 16 mm film traces an afternoon walk.
Shown at Cinema Reset, New Orleans Film Festival 2013.
