[The Low Storm]
2009 35mm 8mm to Video 4:3 16min
music by Lawrence English
In 2007,Lawrence English (electronic musician and organizer of ROOM40), gave me an offer that it might create a work together.
And after the exchange of our own work of each other, the premiere of [The Low Storm] was held at Brisbane's Institute of Modern Art in November 2008.
Lawrence went to Europe tour with my images, and played live soundtrack in every performance. And he got inspiration from images again and again, and built up the imagination and concept for soundtrack.
After the his Europe tour, he recorded soundtrack again, and we have been fixed as cinema.
An image of a horizontal line taken by the 35 mm film, it was transformed by the particles of electronic noise and film grain, and I tried to create a fictional/artificial landscape |
