Located within the public plaza of the Vancouver Film Centre, Moving Pictures is inspired by the capture of image and the play of time in film media. The artwork uses simple camera optics to capture a “real-time” film strip of flowering street trees and Vancouver street life. At night, the tree’s natural seasonal cycle is cinematically accelerated as its colours are transformed throughout the evening by colour-changing light.
