Rachel Rose at High Art

Rachel Rose at High Art

Another render-stentialist fresh out Columbia somewhere between Trecartin and Atkins. So infatuated in the surface exhibiting the plasticity of a world in higher-definition than our own. The video is endlessly manipulative, bending in blitzkrieg assault of sudden weather, like phone phreaking surface effects of our emotive connection, they play like enchantments into us ecstatically, eroding any affective links with what is seen, hyper numbing, leaving the viewer estranged, cold as the real is endlessly manipulated like weather you can turn on and off.
