I’m interested in exploring ‘magical locales’ (ref. Ivan Chteglov) and liminal spaces, in real life and in the mind.

Mosti: the Bridges of St Petersburg. “Bridges of St Petersburg,” deals with the body of water that surrounds and creates the city: the rivers Moyka, Fontanka and Neva, and the web of canals. The city was built on marsh, and is supported by a forest of timber, cut and piled in the unstable ground. The everpresent consciousness of water is counterpointed by the mechanistic rhythms of the thirteen great bridges on the Neva, which open and close nightly to allow access to the sea. “Bridges of St Petersburg” is a montage loop that mixes classic Russian film footage with present material, fusing past and present representation of one of the principal motifs of St Petersburg. score by Christian Glass
