Eaten
Eaten
A game of dress-up: windows and wallpaper, hawks and moths, olive loaf and tinfoil. The sounds and gestures of the everyday gather to become the pre-articulated vocabulary of desire, anxiety, and basic human needs.
The piece uses rephotography to incorporate elements from a site-specific installation with additional super-8 footage, combining direct animation, timelapse photography, and choreography for the projector with found and foleyed non-sync sound to create a sometimes lyric but often jarring meditation on what it can mean to eat and be eaten.
Eaten has been exhibited at the Battle of the Cities Film Festival, Chicago; Art on Film @ The Museum of Fine Art, Boston; Delta International Film Festival, Cleveland, MS, among other festivals.
