Film Installation; Found Footage
Installation
October 1996

location:
Rodericks Chamber Night Club
San Francisco, CA

I was invited to do a film installation at Rodericks Chamber Night Club in San Francisco, CA. I had recently come across a bag of Super 8mm Film and a large box of Medical Xrays on the streets of the mission district.

The Super 8 film turned out to be the documentation of poaching from the 1970's and many of the Xrays had be damaged by mold breaking down the chemicals and creating amazing textures.

I made a number of film loops out of the poaching footage and created slides out of the damaged Xrays.
