1986-1987 / Super 8mm / color-b&w / sound / 1S / 19' 50

Optical printing links east with west within a mosaic of looped, layered and shifting images filmed originally on S8 while on a trip from Bucharest to Paris. Woman walking, woman sweeping, swinging cow udders, nuns chanting, nude descending, Dachau video and more from Dokumenta 6, trip up Pompidou escalator... Disparate elements combined and manipulated — with hf handmade-ness at times lyrical and laced with irony — in a playful, formal work framed within walking, history, and memory.
