What Makes Day and Night

(1998)

16mm, 9 min, sound

This 1940’s artifact is coupled with music by Nino Rota to expose the existential skeleton in the closet: our perilous journey on the planet Earth. A readymade film with the barest of interventions.

Thanks to Hollis, Federico, and Materials for the Arts.
