FRAMES AND LEAVES
Brett Kashmere / 2006 / 35mm / 3 minutes / colour / silent

Synopsis
35mm motion picture film bulk loaded into still cartridges and photographed through a 35mm SLR camera.  The result is a pixelated effect reminiscent of Robert Breer’s single frame technique.  Also a fall "tour film," spanning the Northeast, the Canadian prairies, Central New York, and points between, and a "leave-ing," cross-border exchange of place (and pace), feeling fugitive and elliptical.

Commissioned by Niagara Custom Lab, Toronto.
