Orchard

Orchard

2004 • 8 min
Much of the footage that comprises Orchard is of a 19c ruins that included a walled orchard in and area known as Rostellen in southwest Ireland. It is set deep in the woods and the crumbling brick and mortar of the broken walls has become the anchor for the roots of slender trees, so uninhibited for all this time that they reach twenty feet in height and have thick roots that follow like slow lazy trickles of water and in other places branch and wind over the brickwork in an arterial arrangement reminiscent of the human body. Some footage of Central Park is in there, as well as Niagara Falls, the main Dublin-to-Cork road and a thin smoking woods on the outskirts of Rosslare, Co. Waterford These are facts may be incidental to the film’s eventual form, which winds the images into an arrangement of continuous wandering. All this is attended by environmental whispering sounds until a voice calls out toward the end, in dream-bound recognition, to a figure from the far, far past.

Le tombeau d'Aphrodite - Version 2

2004 • 9 min • France
Carrion Remember the object we saw, my soul, This beautiful summer morning so sweet: At the bend of a path an infamous carrion On a bed strewn with pebbles, Legs in the air, like a lustful woman, Scorching and sweating poisons, Opened in a nonchalant and cynical way Her belly full of excitement. The sun shone on this rot, As in order to cooked to perfection, And to give back to great Nature a hundredfold Everything she had joined together ... - And yet you will be like this garbage, To this horrible infection, Star of my eyes, sun of my nature, You, my angel and my passion! Yes ! such you will be, O queen of graces, After the last rites, When you go, under the grass and the lush flowers, Mold among the bones. Amors, oh my beauty! tell the vermin Who will eat you with kisses, That I kept the divine form and essence Of my decomposed loves!
