Phantom Ore 2012

"In the 1960s I pioneered Abstract Expressionist painting directly to the film surface creating a new vocabulary of moving shape, color, and texture as well as a good measure of chance operation. In the 1970s I added multiple stages of optical printing to my hand-painted film ("Ommo"), but now have returned to a simpler and more pragmatic approach without composing added speed variations." - Ort
