Seamlessness

The film shows the moving pattern of the wallpaper part of the installation "Between the glimpse and the Gaze" at James Hockey Gallery, as well as some of the ceramic sculptures exhibited. The film was shown as part of the exhibition "Seamlessness" where it was creating the illusion of being projected by one of the sculpture in the show *.The film is shot with a multi lenses kit called Astrid, which was equipped with several lenses that mechanical rotate while shooting, decomposing and overlapping the image in a kaleidoscopic effect.
The film depicts the deconstruction as well as the overlapping of the image through the different lenses effects, while the camera is exploring the set where the ceramic sculptures are installed.
