Animated video with accompanying series of drawings and etchings. Inspired by the wild, bird-like sounds of 1920's recordings of tango music. A 3 minute dance between a discarded toy crane, two metal spool figures and a camera.

 

 

The crane lowers and raises its arm as it dances. The spools are joined by a thread which winds from one to the other as they dance and twirl. The film and etchings were exhibited at the Desiring Practices exhibition, RIBA and in The Original Levi's Flagship Store, London.
