Mote It Be

A deep colorful abstract film about marginal light leaking through fragment of transparent structures. Within and outside the time temple, stare at mysteries in the depth of details and trapped lights, the observers went into a profound sub consciousness place, in which, the goddess, the temple and the stairs are haunted images, yet vivid in the deep black cosmos.

"Sandy Ding's WATER SPELL is a bold, abstract journey that takes us into the psychic interior of our very cellular structure... and back. For me, this film is about reincarnation and transformation, on both the spiritual and sub-atomic levels. This is not an easy film, but it is a powerful one."

--Nina Menkes

A dark subtle poetry about return to nothingness and death written on 16mm color reversal film. The film tries to bring out a environment that deposits at the bottom of everyone’s life. The title of the film means the “cradle” in Croatian language. It is the same peace in the cradle and the grave.

A film by Sandy Ding.

An enclosed dream of dream, trance of an innocent past to a dance of shamans.

To summon the third eye awakening, we should not agitate the surface of the mind and physical eye, but soothe and provoke the third eye to awaken. In the gap of time, the flame of images that rise and become eternity is forming the rhythm and the speech. The teachings received in my travels and in green crystals. In distanced mysteries, the half rotten emulsion is the art of metaphysical connection and path of the awakening.

Transformative dance in the in-between space, celebration of the chemistry wave, film material and human blood, a trance poetry.

The "River" is symbolized emotion and the "Castle" is symbolized crisis, distinction and liberation. When the film liberates its original contact by physically weaving it and printing through dense chemistry, the malted lights speaks this transformation.

The Moon is a fundamental energy influence on human.
