George Finlay Ramsay & Alexander Hetherington, 'CASTOROCENE'

ONE WORK
A 16mm still shows a close up of a grey-brown branch, the background is out of focus and we can see the rough textures of the tree’s bark. On the branch sits a yellow-orange organic form, a kind of fungi. It’s wiggles and curves are almost alien-like in appearance. Beneath the organic fungi form is yellow san serif italic text, which reads ‘what is this thing?’

Writing

Writer CAConrad responds to 'CASTOROCENE'.
a close up of lichen through a macro lens, we can see the details and textures of the organic form in pale greens, beiges and whites. As the curving lines of the lichen come closer to the lens, they blur out of focus. The image is framed by the lines of the 16mm colour film stock.
