Poster for MOSAÏC

1987 · ★ 0.0 (0)

MOSAÏC is a collage film using a Super 8 roll that was probably exposed manually, with pretty much failed results, which I reused as a base for collage. To do this, I unspooled the whole roll in order to have a rectangular working base, onto which I applied Super 8 emulsion from another film, in a crosswise fashion, going from strip to strip diagonally and horizontally. The visual effect is totally abstract and resembles a mosaic, with its many little triangular forms.
