Double Shutter

DirectorJohn Smith

1979
7 min

A reworking of material from the 16mm film ‘Blue Bathroom’, a distillation of ideas concerning the tension between representation and materiality. By superimposing and alternating identical framings of two windows filmed by day and by night the film uses their positive/negative aspect to construct and break down representational images and sounds.
