Oblivion Runs - Synopsis (5:00 min)

Andrea Cooper, 2004

A lonely woman on the edge of the island is intent on swallowing the whole world. The blonde & bloody serial killer sexpot consumes. Alas, nothing ever stays….all those that inhabit her terminate her body, including her internal organs. But she carries on. Like an empty house with an entire universe in her gut she obliterates and devours.

Desire is the force that prevents or protects an individual from being completely alone. There is the self and the unconscious force below that self. There is a certain tragedy and superiority in the desire to isolate. Oblivion Runs explores that there is truth in the notion that you are always with yourself.

Oblivion Runs is a 5 min video shot on beta, and digitally manipulated in Adobe After-Effects.
