IMPACTIST. FIELD TRIP SERIES.

COLLECTION
(2006)

Field trips need not always be an excursion to a far off destination. Sometimes, a short trip into the city to observe the variety of trees change into their autumnal colors was orchestrated. Children would be led in groups to where branches offered their previously out of reach color to small hands. All the while, the events would be captured on film and early video to be later sealed in the school's time capsule which would be buried beneath the school courtyard's own twin oak trees.

Images were created using super8 film, 24p video, watercolor pigments, charcoal rubbings, pressed and preserved leaves, various paper stocks, and analog picture tubes. Footage and element acquisition occurred over 300 miles of travel and several days.
