Like a steady moving creek, life passes patiently with or without us. Lifeforce juxtaposes an out of focus image of a large boulder violently battered by cresting waves with fragmented pieces of snowy ice sheets being carried out to sea. Both films reflect spectacular rushes of energy by dilating the invisible wind force through the spatial transmutation of earth and water. A Soliloquy revitalizes and honors the Icelandic landscape in its purest form. Here we see a scientist moving through various stately scenes with a metal detector in hand searching for a material something. Through this ambit of visual poetry and inner reflection we discover an immaterial quest for a deeper understanding of self. A recognition of the insignificance of self in lieu of totality and supreme oneness. 6 Poems clearly invites us into the natural world through seductive compositions in verse, utilizing color and language to amplify the senses.
