"The movement of things" is a videodance work – movement is a basic element in all-time-based visual media forms, videodance is distinguished from other film genres by its emphasis on the craft and composition of movement in the work. - based on the natural movement of things.
It's about trying to capture the essence of movement itself.
A human being allows the external movement of things to invade him without denying the internal movement that happens even when everything around is static.
Paper seagulls, silhouette shapes, moving sand, sea, shadows, waves. A body runs and falls continuosly.
Tension. Actions related to oneself.
