To the North Wind

Video art, slideshow

Tavarnelle Val di Pesa, 2002. In the late afternoon, the tramontana wind dances through an open window, playfully stirring the curtains. The movement evokes the imagery of a Japanese poem:

A ship from Holland!
With numerous sails,
Ahead of the embowed clouds.

This video, created in 2015, is part of a series of slideshows capturing the wind in motion—photographing its presence as it animates everyday objects: a curtain, a tree, a plant.

Music: O Sacrum Convivium
Composer: Messiaen
