Yellow Patch

35mm colour film, HD transfer, Dolby 5.1 sound, 29min-43sec (single screen installation)


A film installation entitled "Yellow Patch". This film was shot in India.
I am interested in the spaces, micro details and the light of these distant interiors. The location of light is an element of my composition and becomes just as intricate and important as having a figure in my work. The stillness has a suspension of everyday life and yet narrative is deferred by mood and mystery and incompleteness. So that atmosphere is tactile, moist light. But as I worked further I kept coming back to disconnection and belatedness.
