“‘Divine Mannequin’ combines the media qualities of video and film with the graphic quality of an animated charcoal line drawing. The images – a subjective point of view of a runner, looped images of buildings and spheres, and a high angle close-up of a man’s face – are placed in a matte frame within a film frame. Rimmer’s film also underlines the human experience with the soothing rhythms and sounds of the runners’ stride, pace and breathing. The spectator is swept along with the aesthetic of everyday movement.” – Maria Insell
