Icarus

Shot on two hand-cranked Bolex cameras, this film captures segments from “Wind,” part of a performance cycle about the four elements choreographed by Bill James. Inspired by the Greek myth of Icarus, who fell from grace after flying too close to the sun, this work contrasts post-industrial waste with stunning images of artifice. Music by Tom Third. Performed by Yvonne Ng, Shannon Cooney and Robert Glumbek, with Fung Shui Tong and Dionysos Himel-Savopoulos.
