Suzan Pitt – Visitation (2013)
2011-2020AnimationExperimentalSuzan PittQuote:
Surrealistic and strange, cast in grainy 16mm images, the film VISITATION allows an imaginary glimpse into the aura of “an outer-world night”. . . the visions in the film are summoned from the film maker’s imagining of a mythical eternity which is beautiful but fraught with pain, exposed by the ether voices and figures which inhabit the eternal ballet beneath our consciousness. “’My mood at the time had served to aggravate those deeply inhuman and most terrible beings when they came with total abandonment from where they had lurked amongst the stones and wet woods”… With these lines, VISITATION unwinds through a hand painted heavenly hell of unending life and death; steeped in the alchemical and inner dream life the film explores a black and white landscape of gothic figures who enact evolving metaphysical dramas.
