is a video work examining the mundane household work of generations
of women through the metaphor of a kaleidoscope.
The
footage began as documentation of three generations of women in
my family making holiday food--popcorn balls. The mundane imagery
of hand work is transformed through formalist techniques of mirroring
and duplicating.
With
formal manipulation and the of the image from a rectangular video
screen to a spherical projection, the imagery is transformed into
abstract images that ooze of bodies and the rhythm of manual labor.
The
work is desiged to be exhibited on a spherical globe and is showing
at the AIR gallery, New York, on 25th Street, as well as in Siggraph
2004.
