Video stills from Jeremy Newman’s “The Dreaming Biome” show, at the sidewalk video gallery of Fountain Street galleries, Boston, through Nov. 12.
Mr. Newman explains:
“This experimental film immerses viewers in an imagined ecosystem where plants and animals from various locations co-exist through juxtaposition and video effects. The natural elements are familiar yet made to appear strange. There is beauty and wonder, but within a Surrealist nightmare. The pacing echoes the rhythms of life from the spider’s climb to the rabbit’s breath. Throughout the film, the ephemeral nature of things is palpable. These creatures are alive and they are already ghosts.”
