Stalagmites and stalactites_from start to finish

Video art – sound and motion
A recent project involved the creation of a work in response to the prompts of sound and motion. After much consideration of motion prompted by sound (alarm clocks, whistles, sirens etc) and motion that generates sound (trains, cars etc), I happened to be in the right place at the right time to record the shadowy, almost other worldly images cast by runners on the beach at Hampton. Accompanied by lapping waves and a lone kayaker, and snatches of conversation from the runners above.
