Infinity Kisses – The Movie, 2008

video, color, sound
14:30 min.

Infinity Kisses–The Movie completes Schneemann's exploration of human and feline sensual communication. It incorporates extracts of the original 124 self-shot 35mm color slide photo sequence, Infinity Kisses, in which the expressive self-determination of the ardent cat was recorded over an eight-year period. Infinity Kisses-The Movie recomposes these images into a video, in which each dissolving frame is split between its full image and a hugely enlarged detail.

Cluny: 1980-1988. Vesper: 1990-1998.Edited by Carolee Schneemann, Trevor Shimizu, Rick Silva. Sound by Rick Silva, Carolee Schneemann. With thanks to Alex Sweetman. To the memory of Diane Buckler 1956-2008.
