my darling, these many days have been collated, inverted and mocked by the words and images surrounding them. Palace of Pope is an experimental video composed of found photographs and original text and sound art. A three-act piece, the video moves from poetic rumination both visually and sonically to a brief dialectic narrative to a long list of names and portraits as the sound breaks down and moves towards music. Throughout the video the images are altered subtly through light, lenses and physical manipulation. The original roughness of the found photographs is present, and then again gone. So that banality and sublimity trade off in response to the poetry of the text. Balancing between essay film and poem, Palace of Pope moves from poignancy to humor with the grace of a blinking shutter.
