SCENE 13 – THE CROW

Images and sound captured whilst on a journey through the British landscape become the material for formalistic experimentation and an exploration of looking/seeing listening/hearing.

A film of a dying world populated by mythic creatures and spirits, our personal meditation on nature and the environment captured on Super 8 film.

Two figures walk through a forest that morphs and transforms before our eyes. In this expressionistic film, VHS footage has been projected and refilmed several times with different cameras until it breaks down and takes on a fluid quality, reminiscent of watercolour or ink, to create a unique and hypnotic image.

Whilst using the same base footage as in Witches Walk (2012), through an alteration in technique, and a vastly different soundscape, the work is transformed from a bright, meditative piece into a darker, almost sinister abstraction.

A series of inner landscapes evoked through sound, voice and fleeting fragments of Super 8 film.

Document and dream exist as one in a visionary travelogue of a journey to Avebury stone circle in Wiltshire. The artists return to the site of an earlier experience in order to look again at a place of personal significance. Revisiting presents an experience mediated by technology and expresses the complex layers that inform how we navigate reality and create meaning from our experiences.

A series of eight moments captured over a single day in the Sussex village of Mayfield. From first light until night Daniel & Clara engage in a process of psychological orientation, their state of mind inexplicably linked to the countryside and shifting weather conditions.
