Phil Solomon - Experimental Filmm & Digital Painting Philip Stewart Solomon (1954 – 2019) was an American experimental filmmaker noted for his work with both film and video.As one of the key filmmakers of the American avant-garde, Phil Solomon is known for his ability to extraordinarily beautiful, deeply affecting film works that are often composed out of abandoned or lost pieces of celluloid. In many cases, these works employ an optical printing process to further degrade, burn and amplify certain figurative elements, almost to the point of pure abstraction. And indeed, one could easily view many of his films as great painterly efforts with pronounced sensual and dimensional qualities. #art #artist #artistic #americanartists #americanculture #americanart #VisualArt #visualculture #filmmaker #experimentalart #experimentalfilmmaker #digitalart #digitalpainting #avangardeart #videoart #fineart #contemparyart #culture #blog #artblog @expositionblog https://www.instagram.com/p/CB7uUlyHs8s/?igshid=hyusi91yn1xu

#mothlight By my fav #experimentalfilmmaker, #stanbrakhage made of little bug parts, bug wings, spiders and long flowing pieces of transparent grass. Like an alive #stainedglasswindow, moving. Showed and cleaned this 16 mm film often at #saic as student. Hard to describe the beauty of it as #projection. YouTube does not do it ANY justice. #film #handpaintedfilm #experimentalfilm https://youtu.be/S5P5vkegmvU

Body Prop TRAILER 2024 from M. Woods on Vimeo.
IN ANTICIPATION OF PERIPHERIES EXPERIMENTAL FILM AND VIDEO FESTIVAL 2024
peripheriesfestival.com
On Friday the 13th Sweet Void Cinema will be screening a the world premiere of M. Woods’ 3rd feature film BODY PROP.
Sweet Void Cinema is located at 3036 W Chicago Ave 1W, Chicago IL, 60622. Tickets go on sale at peripheriesfestival.com on September 2nd. Tickets also available at the door.
8:30PM - BODY PROP by M. Woods (2024) 75’
BODY PROP is an avant-garde essay film and attack against the ontology of white imperialism. Made of mostly hand-processed super 8 film, 16mm, and archival video. The piece, in five movements, takes on the subject of the Body as a prop, as a body politic, as a simulation, and as a necropolitical expense, creating a “Cadaver Decomposition Island” of discarded scraps of Super 8 and archival material to reveal the shadow of US nihilism within the advanced stage of hyperreality.
Select movements from Body Prop have been screened internationally including at the Oberhausen International Short Film Festival, VideoEx, Peripheries Experimental Film & Video Festival, the Ann Arbor Film Festival, and the Athens International Film and Video Festival.

Stills from a recent IGTV post: 4. A tree was photographed for an entire roll of film. The roll was mailed. The recipient froze the film, baked it, froze it again, then dried it by using a blowtorch. Afterwards, he developed the roll. It was scanned and later animated. 2021 #burnedfilm #pyrography #portra #35mmfilm #analogphotography #panoramicphoto #naturephotography #landscapephotography #hauntedforest #portal #ghost #forestphotography #c41film #collaborativeart #mailart #alternativephotography #alternativeprocess #destroyedfilm #ruinedfilm #experimentalfilmmaking #expandedcinema #cinemaexperimental #shortfilm #contemporaryphotography #generativeart #processart #experimentalanimation #experimentalphotography #horrorphotography #bubbleart https://www.instagram.com/p/CNP8JuXH45H/?igshid=15j94yobby6qu

DIMIF 2018: Stan Brakhage - A Key Figure in the History of Experimental Filmmaking
DYSPLA is very proud to have exhibited American dyslexic filmmaker Stan Brakhage’s Window Water Baby Moving at the DYSPLA International Moving Image Festival this month. Regarded as one of the most important experimental filmmakers of the 20th century, for DYSPLA, Brakhage represents the very inception of the ‘Dyslexic Aesthetic’.
He was one of the first artists to push the boundaries of the visual image, and to expand our view of what film can be. He wasn’t just simply a filmmaker, but an artist with a real love for his craft; a practitioner of what he often referred to as ‘pure cinema’.
His inclusion in our festival has given an all-important additional contextual layer to the curation. Not only is he an artist from a different era, who paved the way for those after him, but the experimental artistic aesthetic of Window Water Baby Moving helped in giving our film festival an innovative art gallery feel.
Brakhage’s goal was the liberation of the eye itself, the creation of an act of seeing, previously unimagined and undefined by conventions of representation, an eye as natural and unprejudiced as that of a cat, a bee or an infant. There were few filmmakers who went so far to train audiences to see differently, and that’s why DYSPLA was so excited to have Stan Brakhage’s work included at DIMIF.
It is perhaps unsurprising that Brakhage's films are usually both silent, and lacking in traditional story-telling - thus focusing the viewer’s attention on the pure visual experience. In that, they become more analogous to visual poetry than to prose or literature. Brakhage often referred to his films as ‘visual music’ or ‘moving visual thinking’.
His films however, are not completely devoid of narrative, and DYSPLA’s choice of Window Water Baby Moving was not coincidental. The film tells a story of birth; a story of expectation, anticipation, pain, relief and joy - a story which connected immediately with our audience and exemplified part of the ‘Dyslexic Aesthetic’ which DIMIF sought to capture and showcase.
“How many colours are there in a field of grass to the crawling baby unaware of ‘green’? How many rainbows can light create for the untutored eye? Imagine a world alive with incomprehensible objects, and shimmering with an endless variety of movement and innumerable gradations of colour. Imagine a world before the ‘beginning was the word’.” - Stan Brakhage (Metaphors on Vision, 1963)
