EARTHWORKS

SE/US | 2022 | 23,18 | Peder Bjurman and Mark Holthusen

Earthworks is a contemplation on time, destruction and creation, with a small caterpillar as its only protagonist, arduously plowing through a muddy field somewhere in the Hudson Valley.

“It’s a meditation on effort, and a hopeless case of structuring the unfathomable. It’s something of an uphill illusion; wherever you go there is a hill to climb. If not, you build one on your own. Or three.”, Peder Bjurman says.

 

Concept and direction: Peder Bjurman

Drone photography, D.O.P. and editing: Mark Holthusen.

Music score: David Coulter

Cello: Julia Kent

 

Shot entirely with a Hasselblad Drone in Hudson Valley, New York.

Supported by the Swedish Art Grants committee, Konstnärsnämnden.
