Still Life Bonanza Framed by still life the television pumps out information at an incredible and hypnotic pace. It broadcasts soap or drama series next to documentary or news in the race for ratings… ‘Still Life Bonanza’ reduces action into a series of linear but jumpy visual photographs that act to intensify the drama. Filled with intense layering of sound-dialogue and dramatic music, to turn slow linear-dialogue and bad poetry into a soundtrack that sings. These elements attempt to reflect on the tension created by opposites, such as modern technology verses classical paintings, low art verses high art, popular/mass culture verses elite culture.
