Orange Glow began in September 2020 as an exchange between two friends, in two different cities who decided to come together in the making of a film. From her home in Chicago, Laura Harrison animated each stroke of a painting. She then sent her 90 second video to Lynne Sachs in Brooklyn. Horrified by the television images of San Francisco enveloped in wildfire smoke at the time, Lynne interpreted Laura's painting gestures with these thoughts in mind. She hit the play button of the video and began writing a poem in response to what she saw.
