“Rimmer describes “Migration” as ‘organic myth,’ and he recalls that shooting began with the central image of a dead deer on a beach. Subsequently, he worked on either side of that image (shooting and editing) towards a composition that predominantly featured visual rhythms (which) are the result of an integration of two interesting techniques – flash-frame montage and ‘writing’ with the hand-held camera… Naturalism is subordinated to a kinetic interaction with organic life processes and decay.” – Al Razutis, Vancouver Art Gallery
