It strikes me that:
that’s a lot of layers – I count 6 layers to peer through, and that’s
just writing the credits
Now, the film…….looking at the layers and the work we’ve been doing……
I love the way reflections cause areas of opacity and transparency, shifting holes – we can begin to think about our collages in terms of architecture and expanded space (from 2 to 3 and 4 dimensions)
