Single-channel video projection

The simple action or game of rolling a milk bottle towards the floor placed camera is the subject of this work. A decisively non-artistic gesture is examined with the tools of slow motion of video and sound.
Combined with a site-specific projection the work created a dramatic exploration of gesture and space.
