Always Green, Ever-Living

4k HD video & sound
2 min. loop
2014

Always Green, Ever-Living utilizes a series of point-of-view shots coupled with a section of repeating dialogue extracted from the film Vertigo. As the video loops, alternating times of day, the camera wanders Hitchcock’s original Redwoods location in search of Madeleine creating a poetic and disorienting meditation on time and place in cinema.
