Short film
Peripeteia II
1978 · 10 min
A slow, hypnotic drift through wet forest light, glass and mirrors, more like watching a mood than following a story.
- Directed by
- Abigail Child
- Overview
- Peripeteia I and Peripeteia II, shot by the artist in Oregon’s rainforest, alone and without electricity. "Extending from PERIPETEIA 1 - a navigation by light, contrasting the camera's fixed sight with "in site" movement. A sculpture of glass, mirrors and film vies with the choreography of the cardinal points: dense shelter, rain, red emulsion. Filmed in the Oregon coastal forest, June." - A.C.
