Lover, Lovers, Loving, Love

Overview

LOVER, LOVERS, LOVING, LOVE (2023) is similar to some of my other recent works, like the three films in the Wasteland series (2017-2021) and M*U*S*H (2022), in that it uses plants from my garden and nearby surroundings to excavate a multiplicity of themes: life/death reciprocity, fertility, climate destruction, and geologic time. LOVER, LOVERS, LOVING, LOVE concentrates mostly on the idea of plant sex, mating, plant love, and reproduction to foreground the making of life as the inevitable making of death. The film will mix live action as well as continuous and discontinuous stroboscopic techniques.
