The film was shoot as a single S.8 roll in iris garden of the Casa Maure, and in a field of Normandy.
The light filtering through the petals,[ which act as a sort of screen,] both illuminate matter and reveal the structure of the plant.
In the first part of the work was shoot mostly in macro, so prepulsing ones vision, into the luminous mouleclus that make up living things. A sort of bees eye view of the world.
Gradualy the spacialisation changes to one of an open landscape, and a field of buttercups.
Beyond the vision of flowers and vegatation the work is a meditation on our place in the structure of the cosmos and order of things. Do we have a macro vision of our self and context, are we mircroscope, with an incomplete view and as ephemeral as a petal.
