Hands
Film, 2011
Excerpt from Hands, Double exposed 8mm black & white film transferred to HD, silent, dimensions variable, dur. 3:30 min loop, 2011
...the filmstrip shows two illuminated hands softly pressing towards each other, as if exploring an imperceptible source. The hands take record of each other and softly touch in their parallel performance of double exposure. Although the hands exist at different times, one hand searches the presence of the other in its absence, as if different moments could somehow assimilate. Time in itself seems brutally moving, irrational and mysterious – an elastic conception, a non-quantifiable measure out of sync from its own calculation and rhythm.
