Operation Zeebra

Film still from "Maltese Dreamer"

The past couple of weeks I have been dodging the football over in Germany. By a strange twist of fate the recordings I made of the Quill art exhibition poems will go off to Germany. As films they will have to play off other world entries in a poetry film submission called ZEBRA Poetry Film Award 2006. No cup I think.
Details can be found by the following link.
So far I have the following films to choose for entry for this.
A Somewhat Fuzzy Recollection of a Collection -Sue Wooden
The whole ARC Open Studios exhibition of work by Mark Leech, Racheal Brown, Prue Dobinson, Simon Sela Kasumba, Mark Sargeant, John Dashwood, Manuel Sexias, Derek Jackson, Tonia Jillings, Rupert Mallin, Bridget Heriz, Katarzyna Coleman, manuel Mondonca, Emrys Parry, John Kiki, Bruer Tidman and Mark Cator
Maltese Dreamer - Fiona Hall
inspired by a terracotta figurine by Bridget Heriz
A Portrait of a Young Woman - Sue Cooper
Simon Sela Kasumba painting of the same name
Opposites - Ellie Trett

Rainbow Lady- Fiona Hall -

The Three Ages - Fiona Hall
Three bronze scultures called The Three Ages by Bridget Heriz

A textile piece called Bluesail by Prue Dobinson
Three Spanish Ladies - Fiona Hall
Photograhs of three flamenco dancers by Derek Jackson
There's still a couple more I haven't finished and even all these wont fit into the required maximum duration of ten minutes. But still it's good that this has come out so quickly and has an avenue to to express itself. There's a model for doing this elsewhere with other writing groups something I would like to explore in the future.

A view point of human interaction within the landscape
and not just the geographical location itself.

Me recording Fiona Hall. I think John Dashwoods self portrait
is whispering something to me.

Fiona and Ellie talking about the pictures.

Sue has already finished recording her poem.
