Now I'm Turning to Face You

Now I'm Turning to Face You

Rea Tajiri
1982, 6:50 min, color, sound

Description

Tajiri combines classic cinematic moments with her own text, slyly juxtaposing the power of the viewer's anonymous machinations with the illusions created by the magicians of cinema — both located out of sight, just behind the curtain/screen.
