"I Turned and Walked Away" shown at MOMA

Following on from a screening of "dreaming" (a short film collaboration with Koo Bhangra) in Tate Britain a few years ago, "I Turned Around and Walked Away" was shown at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York in September as part of the exhibition "Facets of Figuration".

The film has also been shown as part of the Big Screen Project in Manhattan and at the "Untitled" Magazine's "Voyeur" exhibitions in Miami, New York and Paris.

Traumatised by the depressing regularity of his daily journeys, the man sits, waits, watches, dreams and reflects on time itself.

On this night-time underground, overground, train journey we travel in a time-altered, mirrored world which turns reality on it’s head and motivates us to view it in a completely different way.

The displacement of time and place mirrors the man who sits. He is used to the regularity of his journeys, but is deeply disturbed by them and is desperate to be free from his powerfully overbearing thoughts.

METROSCOPIC not only reconstructs our perspective but also alludes to the possibility of a multi-dimensional universe and depends on symmetry to produce a seemingly impossible series of moving images.
