Ravine

1979 · 5 min

“With his camera, Sejn not only made detailed studies of nature or landscape photographs, but he also thematized his movement through the landscape. ‘Ravine’ is the title of a film that Sejn made as a direct recording of his hike through rocks in 1979. He showed the constant change of the dynamic and calm moments of walking and the alternation of light and dark in the rocky landscape.” (Simona Mehnert)

Grass

“A very short 8 mm movie, looping into hallucinative effect, which is typical for thinking of author about Awake Dreaming in these time. Digitally modified version.” (Miloš Šejn)

Echoes

“Reflections of sun rays penetrating through the rocks on the water surface in a narrow gap in Plakánek valley of a side stream of Klenice Creek in Bohemian Paradise. The film suggests a hallucination visual effect after staring a long while at a single spot. Echoes is an excerpt from the 30-min. film Rokle.” (Miloš Šejn)

Wellspring

Wellspring · 1979

“Super 8 mm full coloured movie with sound, which was recorded directly among grains of sand, stired up under the water surface. Flowing water and sand create an elusive, hallucinogenic sonic image. In some ways, this moving picture is very close to Hans Jenny's research.” (Miloš Šejn)
