Read Through
Single Channel Video
2019
Read Through is made up of four motion picture scripts read back to two cameras, selected from the returns of online searches using the keywords of film, learning, education, sport – with the term ‘famous scene’ added.  The four selected scenes were taken from 9 to 5 (1980), Karate Kid (1984), Working Girl (1988) and Field of Dreams (1989).   



A tension arises from the originating film scenes haunting a simplified and sincerely read version. The scripted scenes were tenaciously repeated until a resolute performed version was created.
