Pas de deux (excerpt)


2021
Single channel video (excerpt)
stereo camera sound
Duration: 19’33”
Location: Forest Garden, Suffolk
Yet a mysterious expectancy emerges from the ephemeral, rhythmic repetition of cycles and seasons, where time confuses and dissipates; Arion ater and Tandonia budapestensis perform a meditative, syanthropic ballet. The camera watches as their pas de deus unfolds forming a slow, minimalist, observational video with sound captured from the location.


Pas de deux celebrates biodiversity; a driving force behind creating the forest garden.
