close your eyes 2009

Directed by Billy Roisz

A window, complete with blinds, marks the beginning of the visual trip that is this experimental film – a trip taken by performance artist Billy Roisz. Inspired by the hallucinogenic experiences of the painter and writer Henri Michaux, real surroundings quickly dissolve into a succession of abstract images. Stark black and white is followed by psychedelic patterns. Can I almost see a herd of pink hippos there?
