Through a careful balance of texture, tone, and repetition, Isaac weaves together
elliptical cinematic narratives that eschew traditional storylines and function instead to elicit feelings of the uncanny.
Drawing on the use of
elliptical conversations in the 1961 film Last Year at Marienbad by Alain Resnais as a point of departure, the exhibition features works of art that utilize various
cinematic conventions, such as editing, character development,
narrative, mise - en - scène and montage, to reveal how our understanding of reality is often mediated by those very
cinematic techniques.
