Aims for today
- refine the descriptions of recent works *organise and restructure
- the result would be -->making a new (old one is here) self-directed research page (contains descriptions of my works and abstracts of my pervious notes)
Description of recent works: what+how+why structure (#broad context#)
Reversed Shots(my dyslexia also reflects in being bad at naming works), is a split screen video projection. It extracts the audiovisual content from the most dramatic segment of Roman Polanski’s film The Tenant. The original scene is been juxtaposed along with its reversed each single shot. The beginning and the end of each shot is been viewed at the same time, synchronously and continuously playing to the middle from one shot to the next. It is a experiment on how visual art and cinematic experience affect on each other. The artistic approach combined with cinematic language (here mainly adressed on the moving camera, spatial movement) add up to the tensive watching experience.
In this work, she experinments the ability of artistic approach (visual arts) to frame the spectator’s experience of cinema. This reversing method affects the viewer’s sense of time. In general she persues a personal use of these cinematic material and apply them as artistic media.
Works here just remind myself:
- Shot reverse shot + environment shot --> a work that I viewed in Piankothek der Moderne, check information later
- Omer Fast - The Casting (front and back)
- The Threepenny Opera (1931 film) from the English Film Institue
