Ocean at Point Lookout
Arthur Cantrill, Corinne Cantrill, 1977, AU, 16mm, 45'

The came­ra focu­ses deli­be­ra­te­ly on the sea, not on the beach and the visi­ble envi­ron­men­tal destruc­ti­on cau­sed by sand mines. The con­cen­tra­ti­on on the mood and natu­re of the sea high­lights the desi­re to res­pect natu­re and its power. Different mate­ri­als are used to film the undu­la­ti­on of the sea, the reflec­ti­on of light and the hori­zon, over and over. This is visu­al poe­try who­se musi­cal struc­tu­re rests on silence.
