Air Gap
Palosaari Sari
The scene is set in a rough urban landscape, yet the expectations of the image are about to have an unexpected turn in a form of a vacuum lifter. The minimal moving image work plays with the conventional perception of the cinematic space. A simple act opens up another space where you did not think it would be.
