Brimming with vibrant images of blossoms, orchards, insects, and grasses, the works of celebrated French filmmaker Rose Lowder literally buzz with life. For over thirty years, she has crafted a body of stunning structuralist portraits of the pastoral environs around her home in southern France. Often shot one frame at a time and composed through elaborate, pre-designed in-camera edits, each of her films also explores the possibilities of photographic and visual perception. Viewed together, they offer a dynamic investigation into the rhythms and cycles of the natural world. This evening, in her first-ever Chicago appearance, Lowder will present a selection of old and new works, including her on-going Bouquets series, each one-minute tributes to the flora and fauna she films.
