Root
By Riccardo Iacono
2006
Riccardo Iacono
A notebook/catalogue of optical experiences, memories and thoughts composed of geometric and organic looking abstract images painted directly onto clear 16mm stock, interspersed with sequences of found footage.
My first experiment in hand-painted film-making and optical printing, (painted in 1993 and edited in 2003) exploring the frame-by-frame interaction of contrasting colours, textures and shapes.
Images from Root were used as source material for my other films Pour, Deluxe, Double, Radiator, SKZCP and Letters.
