An upside-down time-lapse camera is moved, frame by frame, on a track along a beach, inverting the ground and the sky. The camera moves through four shots recorded in different weather conditions. The result is a mysterious and disorienting space in accelerated time, where the originally solid ground at the top of the frame appears to be sliding past like a lava stream. Proximity was shot on Super 16mm film, on location in North Jutland, Denmark.
Technical information
Proximity consists of four tracking shots. It was shot on Super 16mm film where the camera was placed upside-down on a small dolly and moved 1cm at a time by hand, and shot frame by frame. The track was 15 meters long and was placed in different positions in different climates on the same flat beach in Denmark.
