“[…] the sequence offers a meditation on vision and perception—the experience of shifting perspectives that offer both opacity and surprising moments of clarity. Above all, Flow Attachment is a series of dialogues between figure and ground, negative and positive, representation and abstraction— but also between the materiality of analog and digital forms of image-making.”
- S. Topiary Landberg, from The Lure of Indeterminacy
FLOW ATTACHMENT
short exp non-fiction
2026; 16mm; RT: 9 min
A coastal sand dune is transformed and reshaped into digital ether. The film focuses closely on sand as a material, which is composed of silica, the mineral that is a primary ingredient in manufacturing silicon chips, lenses, binoculars, microscopes and mirrors - devices that extend our vision. The film uses these to visually capture the sand dune and evoke the transformation of materials that goes into their production. Through 16mm analog techniques, elemental forces of a sand dune merge with the physical properties of the celluloid.
