Diver
2015
Single channel video with audio
Beginning with an abstract projection on water whose form is broken by the splash of a human body, Diver pushes, layer-by-layer, through cinematic surfaces. One by one, through a series of visual reveals, the film offers both an engrossingly elusive dimensional depth and a challenge to our preconceptions of viewing and exhibition. Diver awakens, excites and strikes curiosity, expanding cinematic standards of spatial realism with projection and superimposition to shatter each successive image’s illusion of depth.
