Description: | This fixed-frame work depicts a landscaped garden whose stillness is broken by the wind that plays across it. As the work itself reveals, the wind in Nettlecombe is achieved thorough an orchestrated performance of wind machines and ropes in which the trees and bushes in the garden are animated like puppets within a constructed set. In creating and then undoing an illusion of the wind as a natural phenomenon this new film shares common ground with the aims of Structural film-makers of the 1970's. Nettlecombe questions whether you have to suspend your disbelief to become involved in the psychologically and dramatically charged qualities of this landscape. |
