Intrigues (II)
Synopsis
“The opening to a series of seven films inspired by Delmore Schwartz’s observations on the word ‘intrigue’. My series regards various aspects of personal visuals, including the process of shooting, splicing, repetition, projection and editing bench equipment. Much of the imagery exists within a darkened ambiguity. Intrigues (I), intersperses prismatic light, underwater shooting, echoing of shadows and other low-lit fragments/ precipitous moments of activities.” (J.B.)
