Listen to the wind eight hundred times

An antique 1909 hand-cranked projector becomes the catalyst for a meditation on cinema, time, and impermanence. Hand-painted 35mm film unfurls like a painted scroll as light, pigment, and mechanical motion merge into a living performance of the medium itself. Accompanied by an evocative score from Michael Pisaro-Liu, this luminous work transforms the fragile materiality of film into a quiet meditation on history, memory, and the passage of time.
