Man with Mirror

The film maker's live interaction with his on-screen image projected onto a hand-held mirrored screen. The screen is white on one side and mirrored the other, and is used by the artist/performer to 'catch' the projected image, or reflect it around the cinema space. The film being projected shows the same actions taking place years earlier, in a sunlit landscape. Visual echoes are made between the live event and the recorded one, between the artist/performer and his former self. This performance can include directional sound aimed at the screen, its movements deflecting the sound around the space. The performance can also happen outside at night, whereupon those parts of the film not caught by the screen disappear in the dark.
