Meditate on the mesmerising movements and let this film transport you to clouds, nebulas or you wherever your fancy takes you. Time has engraved a lively layer of dancing scratches that bring their own rhythm over the billowing plumes of cloudy liquid. This film is possibly an early student experiment by Northern Irish artist Brian Connolly. It’s a rare glimpse into the kind of playful film making by local artists that was emerging from the Belfast School of Art.
