"She Said, vol.1: Down Hill"
digital, 36 seconds, 2008
Tobogganing and being socially polite and attentive come into conflict. This video just began with the phrase that popped into my head while a movie was paused one evening. I liked the rhythm of it, although I saw no point in it. It was lying there on a sticky note when I took up the video challenge. I had also just been tobogganing and have really gotten into lying on my belly and going down hill with my nose an inch from the surface. When the hills are calm and weather nice, I shoot photos and video while doing this. I thought the metaphor might work well.
