Still Dissolution

Siegfried Alexander Fruhauf / Austria / 2013 / Czech Premiere / 3 min.

synopsis

Photographs of the seaside area torn from the monotony of peacefulness as they start to melt and the watery surface in the picture seems to swell and roil. Four parallel shots undergo their own independent material transformation and the realistic image is engulfed in splotches and bubbles, while the flicker effect underscores the disturbance of the photograph´s unchanging permanence as it develops its dramatic dissolution.

DETAIL:
All at once, all the scenes are covered by a molten substance to create an abstract image reminiscent of the limited nature of the visual representation resulting from the picture frame and the point in time it refers to.
