Landscapes 2013

Directed by Lisa Crafts

Overgrowth is inspired by the fringe ecosystem of the city, where abandoned and decayed ruins meet encroaching plants, animals and waters. It explores the tumultuous relationship between humanity and nature as they overtake and impact one other, and fleeting moments of incongruous, fragile harmony. Gazing out a train window, reflecting on the passing landscape and the imaginings they trigger. A wry animated rumination on sidewalk gum - with a grateful nod to Oskar Fischinger.
