Still Movie

Divided in five complex chapters Still Movie is a union of many themes. Exemplary of the contemporary way in which we access information through the internet – think time travel and infinite research possibilities, webs of relationships between subjects, etc. It juxtaposes references ranging from very early paintings depicting paradise to modern paintings of industrial times, references Nietzsche as well as Bob Dylan, and shows the striking similarities of symbols found in Mitla Oaxacan pyramids with that Atari video game icons. Besides the myriad of thematic allusions, Still Movie also becomes a new way to see painting. Its scenes are pictorial, sometimes imitating paintings themselves, and at times digital versions of old paintings become video and change colors, fading and coming back to life.
