Synopsis: january seeks to capture the essence of winter via an experimental/intuitive perspective. Much of this piece was shot without my looking through the viewfinder utilizing a frame by frame exposure to build a landscape with snow banks, icy sidewalks and various tire tracks and trees along a Winnipeg walking trail. A process oriented work, january, carried with it the intention of generating audio with the digitized film, a dynamic drone that sits beneath the audio track from start to finish. The use of negative space illustrates the importance of what is there as much as what is not there, the dimension of dream, or the space between the space.
