Sunspots, 2025

color, sound, 5:47, 16mm cameraless film

An incandescent field; a radiating spectrum. Material accretions on the 16mm substrate produce saturated densities and branching interference. These phenomena manifest as shifting solar bodies, umbral and penumbral fissures. A resonant swarm of charged sonic particles. The blinding proximity of the infinite.

"Through the logic of the aleatory, Sunspots constructs unreal places that could not exist otherwise. Fallen lassen und träumen (Let yourself fall and dream) is the imperative!" Kasseler Dokfest

"A cosmic reference of crystalline vibration; the work achieves a continuity between the materiality of the real and the perception of the universe, overcoming the split between the human and the cosmic." Pablo Gamba, Los Experimentos

"[Sunspots] mirror the floating specks across our own vision." Beijing International Short Film Festival (BISFF)
