Soft Rains #5: The Spa

Based on Federico Fellini's 8 1/2, this kinetic sculpture depicts a questioning artist walking through a European spa.

Installation with video projection

2003

Soft Rains consists of multiple platforms. Each platform represents a familiar cinematic archetype or genre rendered in miniature (60s Arthouse, 70s horror etc). The miniature ‘heroine’ of the work, clad in a distinctive red dress, is pictured in each of the sets. The live feed from each video camera is connected to a computer-based video sequencer, which switches from one camera to another to create an edited sequence appearing as a large scale projection.
