[ DESCRIPTION ]
A carpet taken apart into its threads. Every knot of the pattern becomes a strand that keeps its colour, and the pile moves like hair: combed by an unseen current, parted, and gathered again. The film runs six minutes on a wide curved wall in a dark room. Tens of thousands of simulated fibres stand in space with no backing behind them. The ornament holds for a moment as cloth, then moves off as colour.
