Shiho KANO - works - Filmography

Human eye adjusts the brightness of the light automatically, but Camera eye can control the brightness freely. Camera eye can see the darkness in the light of day, and can turn the dusk into the morning sunshine. When the white room is getting darker and lighter, you surely witness that's form is sublimated.

White Tablecloth

(2000/video/7.5min)

While the spot of water soaked into the tablecloth has disappeared holly -7min 30sec-, the spot repeats contracting and expanding like a surf. Technically, I recomposed the arrangement of time by editing, and piled scenes several times. In this film, the physical and real time of evaporation coexists with the operated time in the film, The aftertaste and the blank are also important matters for this film.

STILL

(1999/S-8/15min)

Action of the character in the film is expressed by monochromatic still pictures, in fine, time is in cut state. Though color scenes inserted in the film have flowing time, we can't easily recognize that the scene is moving, because of the fixed shoot. I expressed the fixed time of still pictures, and the eternity and the timelessness, in this film. (The eternal flow of time in fixed scene, or time which is kept stopping.)

Landscape

(1998/S-8/13min)

You can see the woman sitting still and the landscape in turn. In this film, the character is not the heroine, and is equated with the landscape.As the subject is equated with the existence of a film too, the difference of time each having is presented in this film.
