Circles

Using the opening paragraphs of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay of the same name as a point of departure, Circles employs lofi environmental textures to explore concepts surrounding circularity, sight, and the passage of time. Its world is flickering in and out of existence. It begins with footage of recognizable spaces and objects and gradually transitions into ever more manipulated, glitchy and transparently artificial and abstracted images. Textual interludes put the film in conversation with the viewer, contextualizing its images and their aged digital patina.
