Spinning, 2 minutes and 19 seconds, Super 8 to 2K, silent, 2019
A self-portrait performance capturing a symphony of perfect chaos. Spinning is inspired by the dizzying camera movements exemplified in John Porter's Cinefuge 4 (1980), and the avant-garde cemetery scene in Sergio Leone's The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (1966).
