Drawing Houses

Drawing Houses 1982

1

Drawing Houses consists of two parts. In each part performers make drawings of houses. The first part is filmed at a high angle looking down at a floor. The scene opens with a close-up of the back of a Hawaii-an shirt. The Hawaiian shirt wearer moves out and a performer enters and begins to draw on the floor. A drawing of a house is made on the floor. The drawing is made so that it appears to be on the plane of the projected image and not on the receding floor plane. In the second part of the film the camera is placed so that the scene is viewed straight on. This scene opens with a black line grid on the screen. A large facial profile appears when the perfomer removes some paper that covers it. He draws in the facial details. The performer then draws a line drawing of a house. This drawing looks similiar to the one from the earlier scene. Another house is drawn in the background. However parts of each house are drawn on different planes.

The subject of the film: translating without words, through a filmic writing, the inner wandering of a moving thought, in its discontinuity, its jumps, its eclipses, with its accelerations, ruptures, stops, drifts, falls, erasures ... "Housing project by a single man", corresponding to the film being made. The man perceived as double: in constant relation with his "other", this man is the subject of the film.
