Gaze

Directed by Wheeler Dixon

"In 1971, I drew a large mural on the wall of my studio - involving painting, tracing, and photo-silkscreens - which was located on the top floor of an abandoned building in New Brunswick, NJ. In 1974, the building was demolished. One morning, just before the demolition crew moved in, I set up my Bolex and shot 100' of the mural before it was completely destroyed, and here it is. The film is silent; the light is all natural; the film is Ektachrome Reversal 7241, a really beautiful daylight film stock - 2.5 minutes of contemplation." - WWD
