Balloons

Balloons, video, 5 min, 2013

The camera is focused on a woman’s mouth. The woman blows into a balloon, with each breath the balloon inflates to fill the screen with colour. The woman then lets go of the balloon to fly around the room deflating with the sound of a whoopee cushion. The inflation and deflation is repeated with different coloured balloons as the woman runs out of breath.
