7BPM
Lounila Liisa
7BPM (7 beats per minute) depicts a nocturnal thunderstorm in Chinle, Arizona. Set at night, the dreamlike still image looks over a painterly, artificially illuminated small moss surrounded by darkness. A hypnotic, monotonic choir of frogs and crickets create a continuous soothing audio background to a thunder trapped in a nearby canyon. The lightnings appear in an unnaturally steady pattern, exposing the surrounding open landscape behind the lit foreground. For a split second the view resembles a set from a horror movie. The ever-present thunder storm, associated with divine and destructive powers, leaves the foreground and the viewer untouched and irritatingly safe to his/her own private area.
