Shoreline presents nature as if it were the dramatic protagonist whose beautiful face is viewed in an intimate close-up. The isolated section of beach, which is the cinematic focus of the work, brings “nature” into the foreground. This perspective establishes an intimate proximity with the viewer and removes the distraction of vanishing points or receding horizons. Also, by removing any reference to its origins as a rectangular projection, the video is transformed into an object within the fabric.
