FOUR CORNER TIME
LINE
PERIMETER
TRAFFIC LIGHT
INTERSECTION
1976
A series of 4 black and white silent films around and about an urban traffic intersection. I see these short films as a seedbed of ideas and obsessions that inform and contextualize many of the visual and editorial strategies in my subsequent longer-form films.
