LiveBox
is pleased to announce Tim Greer's participation in the Flint
Institute of Art's Film programming. “Eleanor”,
looped video. , 2007, (3:11 min) will be screened during the month
of September. Eleanor is gorgeously shot with reminiscences of Planet
Earth and other wildlife documentaries, yet subtly critiquing the
US involvement in the Middle East. The piece is shot tightly capturing
crickets caught in a liquid substance, presumably oil. The close-up
shots depict the bugs devouring and succumbing to the liquid. The
piece is open enough to engage a dialogue on excess as well as war.
