Winterwheat


Rental Format(s): 16mm film / Digital File

WINTERWHEAT was made by bleaching, scratching and painting directly on the emulsion of an educational film about the farming cycle. I wanted to manipulate the found footage to create lulling, hypnotic visuals while also suggesting an apocalyptic narrative. Though the images can be viewed purely for their graphic idiosyncracy, a quiet but persistent theme of destruction winds its way through the film.

"Street plays the images in a variety of ways, stating, varying and altering his theme with a symphonic sense of invention." - Calvin Ahlgren, San Francisco Chronicle
