Corrida, 1929
I cast the light from two flashlights over the projection of a home movie of a bull-fight presumed to have been shot by Man Ray. The film did not resurface in the scholarship around the artists work until 1985. It is thought to have been shot by Ernest Hemingway who had borrowed Man Ray's camera around the time that the film was made. I was interested in the themes of animism, boredom and the use of bovine imagery in the study of seduction in works of art and literature.
