Dean is a visual artist. Her art works are movies and films; since she was studying at the Slade School, she has been working with celluloid. She frequently writes short narratives to accompany her films too. Her projects are simples but very interestings and originals.
Tacita participates in the 12th annual commission of The Unilever Series at Tate Modern.
She has created a new work called FILM. Is a silent 35mm looped movie projected in a very huge screen of 13 metres tall, at the Turbine Hall.
FILM talks about the qualities of this unique medium, it's a portrait of the medium itself.
Tacita said that FILM is a visual poem about film, she want us to see the difference between film and digital recording.
She created FILM with images or frames, as collages, cutting up postcards from her collection, making diferent shapes or changing colours, adding abstract and surreal things. All become in movement, and the result with visual effects and hand-editing turns into 11 minutes of FILM.
But she also has problems editing 35mm, because new digital technologies are making analogue film disappear. And this medium will be lost for ever if it is allowed to go away.
