About
Seasonal Forces reveals the dissonance of human and natural conjunctions unfolding in rural areas everywhere I have drawn on footage shot over the past 25 years some appropriated from commercial resources some handprocessed an accumulation of textures which illuminate the films fabric of memory A wisteria arbor in bloom collapses under the weight of a late Spring rain is rebuilt and repeats its cycle In between occur an arson flood earthquake planting and the harvest Part 2 reflects on animals roles in our lives as providers of food companionship clothing and sport I observe the changes around me as I attempt to understand what it means to cultivate a sense of place in time
