Anna Franceschini - Laws of Attraction

video artist
impressions:
random, liked the use of light, tension, little sound to distract-muted low growl-like bass notes that may or may not have been the sound slowed down.
Slightly haunting location for a film anyway, the ghost ride, haunted house, all forced fear, jumpy laughs and old-school nostalgia.
Something hypnotic and nauseating about watching the images of the big dipper and rides.
Eery sense of being left there at night, abandoned as there are no other visible people.
Jarring more lengthy shots of a pair of legs in manicles shaking in a fitting fashion as if on an electric chair.
How we are appalled by murders and gruesome images in the news, but crime dramas and getting thrills on rides remain an unchanging pasttime however civilised we like to think we're becoming.....
Liked the use of hanging screens with noisy old school projection and shuddering images on a loop. Again,making the viewer feel unsettled and wondering if you're the hunter or hunted.
Sensual piece of video showing hands moving under material with holes of light.
