Gleam­ing / Phil Evans

Gleam­ing is a 30-minute pro­jec­tion loop by artist Phil Evans. Each scene is hand-painted on tiny Super 8 film, then scanned frame by frame and arranged into free-flow­ing anim­a­tions. Work­ing at a micro­scop­ic scale, Evans cre­ates images whose true tex­tures reveal them­selves only after the film has been scanned. This pro­cess leaves room for sur­prise, giv­ing the work a lively, unpre­dict­able qual­ity shaped by both con­trol and chance.
