Images gasping for air
The Smell of Death is the last in a series of moving image creations made as an extension of the Abstract Expressionist painting movement. The film’s structure reveals the interaction of abstract textures and lines punctuated by blackness. The pace and rhythm are purely visual, without dependence of narrative or auditory structure.
