The Re-union

Video art dissolves into painting.

Working to grow an artistic process and project begun by Priscilla Smith and Ed Wenzer, I've made video that is projected on a large wall above Underground Atlanta for the project Elevate, curated by the Office of Cultural Affairs. We shot video of three brief moments in the Five Points Marta Station adjacent to Underground Atlanta. The video is projected on the wall, and occasionally paused. In the pauses, Ed paints elements from the video, creating a composite that evolved over time and is distilled in the singularity of paint, by day. At night, the painting and the video will dilate between becoming, stillness, and release. The painting will begin on Tuesday, as performance, and go on for two weeks.
