It's the first time that I've ever had an art show based on a film, but it's a photography collage.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Picture-taking is an ensemble art - like theater.
Film and art are close together.
I love film - it's like painting.
Cinema is an art form.
The challenge to me as a director was for the audience to see the film as going on in a straight line, so that they did not sense all of these break-ups. I did not want a film to be a collage of all these images.
I always saw photography as a way to get to film.
Photography has always been about documentary, the depiction of the instant, a moment, sometimes a place. Each project is somehow an experimentation of a specific context or a character.
I began to see cinema as the perfect combination of so many wonderful art forms - painting, photography, music, dance, theater.
Almost any film that you do is an opportunity to open you up and make you more aware of an area that you might not be thinking about. That's what is kind of cool, or one of the cool things about this profession.
I started using film as part of live theatre performance - what used to be called performance art - and I became intrigued by film.
