This film was made for the site specific screening Fleur Power, created by Melinda Stone.
She planted a screen of sweet alyssum (also called "carpet of snow") on a mountainside and
asked artists to make work for this one-time event. This short film attempts to replace the grass which she pulled up in order to create the screen, while playing with concepts of scale and time.
This film was restored in 2021 by XFR Collective through the initiative of Walter Forsberg and Andrea Callard and with the assistance of the National Film Preservation Foundation
