Hommage: Punto y Raya 2025

Abstract Iterations III

Sabrina Schmid, Paul Fletcher
In a chaos of snapshots, you find yourself simultaneously in the past, present and future. A film that tells of time and space and questions the now.

Single frames from a direct animation appear on the screen in staggered repetition. The shapes painted, printed and scratched on 35mm material evolve, with minimal time lapses, from one edge of the frame to the other. A trace is left, telling of time itself and asking: When exactly is “now”? The past, present and future are spinning in the chaos of moments.
