Company Stream

Shot entirely underwater, Company Stream follows the movements of an eel in disorientating close up. Company Stream is loosely based on From the Observatory (2011), a paean to the sensual and orientational capacities of eels written in ecstatic streaming prose by Argentine-French writer Julio Cortazar. Commissioned by CIRCUIT and curated by Mercedes Vicente as part of Thick Cinema (2017), a series of artist cinema commissions exploring the role of the body and sensorial experience in cinematic intelligibility and meaning.
