BURNING BUSH

by Vincent GRENIER
2010 / Video / color / sound / 1S / 9' 20

Burning Bush is made from a series of mid-fall shots of a bright "digital" red euonymus both in real time and with video time lapses. Much of the ideas for the piece emerged during post-production. The Euonymus mid-fall "natural" leaves are startling, their colors are so saturated as to appear unreal, their purity so uniform as to appear manufactured. It has long been a fascination of mine to activate shared qualities living in parallel universes; always, that which is present in the make up of the digital cinema image and that of the physical world it is representing. Assumptions we make about the real world, the way it is recorded, or more appropriately translated, are cultural constructs. The biblical references about the Burning Bush are man made poetic as well as insitutional constructs.
