Circles, 1972
Jan van Munster
2′ 38″
4:3 aspect ratio

Van Munster himself is standing frontally in the middle of the image, gazing stoically into the camera while holding a light bulb on a long flex in his hands. With regular movements, he swings the bulb round and round. At first in small circles, but the more he releases the flex, the larger the circles become, transcending the frame of the image.

The MOVING IMAGES / MOVING BODIES screening programme was curated by Netherlands Media Art Institute for Portland Green Cultural Projects.
