Slow Action

Synopsis

Slow Action is a multi-screen installation filmed at four locations around the world: Gunkanjima - an island off the coast of Nagasaki, Japan - an abandoned city built on a rock that was built to house the families of the colliers who once worked the now depleted mines below: Tuvalu - a country in the middle of the Pacific made up of tiny strips of land just above sea level; Lanzarote - one of the driest climates on earth and a mix of beach resorts, dead volcanoes and curious architecture; and Somerset - a possible future Utopia.
