Split Decisons, Vtape exhibiton
I was perusing RM Vaughan's stellar blog recently and noticed a review of an exhibiton my pal Deirdre Logue is participating in. Here is a still of Deirdre's film from the Vtape show.
Says Vaughan: "Equally fun, and beautiful to look at, is Deirdre Logue’s succinct, aptly titled short 'That Beauty'. The film opens with a screen full of brilliant sparkles and fades into a heavily shadowed shot of an unidentified person (Logue, I suspect) dancing in his/her kitchen. As the figure rocks out to a looped beat and repeated, upbeat refrain, her/his body grows increasingly covered in the bright speckles of light, until the dancer looks like Tinkerbell on an ecstasy high. This film is so joyous, and so neatly self-contained, that it deserves to be viewed twice, if for nothing more than the giddy high it induces. Logue’s films have always had a playful bent, despite her reputation for making meditative, introspective work, but 'That Beauty' is her Flashdance.
