Sunrich Orange
"The one that turns to the sun…". A special characteristic of the sunflower is that it always turns to the light. In SUNRICH ORANGE the manifold surfaces and structures of this plant have been captured in a particular sequence with analog photography. The 35mm films strung together result in this experimental film. Through the "projection" of the sunflower, it becomes a light source itself and the viewer becomes the one who turns to the sun.
