Current

Directed by Ellie Epp
Canada, 1982 (experimental, 3 minutes, colour)

Film Description:
"The conceptual and minimalist aesthetic seen in this film [Current] refers to the more complex metaphysical and alchemical transformations which occur when silver is exposed to tungsten light. These currents of light, like Daniel Burren's striped conceptual art, refer to the basic nature of representation while attempting to resist and transform traditional viewing habits or consumption. Current is a beautiful meditation on these realities."
