Moving Pictures is inspired by the capture of images and the play of time in film media. The art installation consists of two five metre high sculptural stainless steel forms located within the busy outdoor public plaza of the Vancouver Film Centre. The artwork uses simple camera optics to capture a “real-time” film strip of flowering street trees and Vancouver street life. At night, the trees’ natural seasonal cycle is cinematically accelerated as their colours are transformed throughout the evening by colour-changing light.
