Spirit of Place

Oliver Harrison UK, 1992, 10', SD video

Every room has a spirit which sleeps beneath the layers of peeling paint and wallpaper. Spirit of place observes the awakening of such a spirit, coerced into life by moonlight to reveal sumptuous velvets, decaying gilt, and an assemblage of neo-gothic objects d’art - a ghostly reflection of its past. A one-take dream in Cocteauesque monochrome.
