Artist in attendance
“The Sequent of Hanna Ave. is the result of my enquiries into the phenomena of the movement-illusionism in the film form. By combining found footage, hand- processing and hi-end digital technology, I propose to elevate a few mundane gestures to a new perceptible wholeness, and give some small fingers and a c-cassette tape all th attention, grace and drama they somehow deserve. Deep Six has three starting points: a little narrative re-edited from a Hollywood B-film (The Rage, 1998), an attempt to use the colour photocopy as a cinematic aesthetic and to explore the frame line as a dynamic visual element. The 512 original frames that Fokus is made from are from my grandmothers 1950´s home movie. By deconstructing and re-constructing these scenes, my aim was to enhance meanings that are already present in the original material, but easily escape the spectator's attention.” (Sami van Ingen)
BIOGRAPHY
For more than two decedes, Sami van Ingen (b. 1964) has made experimental films and installations based on the moving image. One of the main characteristics of his work is an examination of the cinematic apparatus itself and the boundaries within it. His works have been screened in many national and international festivals and venues over the years. Collaborators include filmmakers Philip Hoffman and Bruce Baillie, as well as composer Petri Kuljuntausta.
