Krummi (2014)
Screendance Installation
Krummi is an investigation of creating choreography on the screen solely with imagery of movements of nature. There are no dancing bodies in this film, the choreography is created by the movement of the elements, such as clouds, steam, water, ice, snow, and ravens. The soundscape emphasizes the creation of space and the rhythmic interrelationship of the edit of images using triptych split screen and the compelling accumulative soundscape form an installation piece that challenges the perception of screendance in time, effort and space, and in absence of living dancing bodies creating a choreography purely via the cinematography.
