Chet
Installation view, 16mm film. 2017
Chet explores obsession, death, and the memory of loved ones. The installation space is divided in half. On one side of a dividing wall, I continuously watch and loop a silent 16mm film. On the other side, a cellist performs. The film is a digital animation converted into 16mm and resembles a Muybridge movement study. The actor is a 3D sculpted and animated figure that continuously attempts to play a violin. While watching the silent film, the viewer can hear the cellist perform through the wall.
