Red cuts and the air in between
An etude in red condenses the visual vocabulary of Pürrer and Scheirl into a form of grammar. Close-ups of a grimacing face with rolling eyes and iconic make-up (Siouxie and the Banhees) are cut at high velocity with bodies assuming poses approximating stop-motion and portraits of plants. Sound structures the tempo which is repeatedly whipped up into a frenzy by second-long sequences. The air between is tight. (Andrea B. Braidt)
