I N E X P R E S S I B L E I S L A N D 2010, S8 mm film on digital, r/t 10’ The work takes its name from the extremely rocky island found in the Antarctic, a place known to be one of the most isolated and unwelcoming places on earth, especially, for humans. The camera moves through the city and reaches the desert. Even though the human figures are almost absent, the scenes are characterized by a constant presence of man-made objects recalling the idea of nature. The film is recorded at slow speed, each scene lasting just a few frames. The resulting piece is an in-camera edited film composed by chaotic flashing images and glimpses. The film was shot in Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico and Milan.
