Saalagirah

"Saalagirah" by McClaine Timmerman Productions and Scott F. Hall, 30 July 2022, video with stereo sound, 3 minutes 45 seconds duration.

The 3 minute 45 second stop-motion video with stereo sound, “Saalagirah” featuring McClaine Timmerman and Scott F. Hall, leads the viewer to meditate on life and the universe with regard to Nature as a grand cyclical entity dealing perpetual renewal and change. We see the dancer work with such grace and power, fully expressing her spirit and craft, visibly altering the smoothness of the sand. But soon, as has happened countless times prior, the ocean tide will erase all trace of her mark making, thereby eliminating the history of these moments and refreshing this place for the arrival of another.
