death by fantasies by mirrors (2022)

Overview

In keeping with her usual exploratory, material approach to images and sound, Charlotte Clermont has created a mosaic film, shot on Super 8 and 16mm stock, which she develops by hand and then augments with coloured ink. The camera takes in objects, plants, a landscape, bodies, a stretch of water, the air, wind. The scenes are short, often framed as close-ups. This unfurling of furtive moments, enigmatic spaces and blazing light plays out like a series of disorientations, sustained by a soundtrack that is every bit as rich and sensual.
