Harvest, 1988

photostat, Plexiglas and acrylic

Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery

This work consists of a photostat of a still from Georges Franju’s documentary film Blood of the Beasts (1949).

I used white acrylic to trace selected brush marks from a thrift store painting of a harvest scene onto a sheet of red Plexiglas. I overlayed the Plexglas onto the photostat of the film still.
