Phantom Canyon
Director: Stacey Steers
Showing: May 30, 2pm, MTC

Phantom Canyon is a Goreyesque, Surreallish trip through one woman’s ontogenese amoureaux. Collaged and animated from the motion studies of Eadweard Muybridge (the man largely credited with crossing the bridge from sequential photography to cinema – to win a bet, no less), this haunting piece of art flutters the imagination’s shutters.

" Stacey Steers’ superb collage animation ranks with the best of Larry Jordan’s work". – G.R.
